Are we talking about MDBs or SDBs?
I had the most fantastic bloom on SDBs ever about two years ago
when we had a sustained cold winter. The clumps were just
covered with flowers at or near registered height. VIOLET LULU
and COCOA PINK were really outstanding. 99% of MDBs perish
in the summer heat here.
