I understand the definition, but "once...and again" is subjective. Two
stalks that open one day apart? Two weeks apart? If is a judgement call
and not a specifically defined interval, about 2 months seems like rebloom
to me and not just a long blooming period. But what about 3 months of
continuous bloom?
