Dorothy,
Good question..I saw this week in a local garden also leaning very badly.  This is something that 
must be looked at carefully.  Another thing to watch out for: Since these types of introductions 
produce very large blooms - will they bloom every year?  Fancy Brass, another Schreiners 
introduction, produces huge blooms...every other year..maybe!  If it takes 2 years to gain enough 
strength to bloom again...well  as the saying goes:  "Out she goes!!!"  (No gender intended) :-)

Dennis - in full TB bloom (and IB bloom with some Siberian and Louisiana bloom too)
