REB: Violet Miracle etc

VIOLET MIRACLE is rapidly becoming a new favorite here, & may possibly
beat out HARVEST OF MEMORIES in my regard one of these days.  The blooms
aren't as pretty, nor as sweetly fragrant, but it is so prolific with
bloomstalks, blooming off and on all summer this year with all the wet
weather.  And stalks are nice and tall, without the corkscrewing around
that often affects HOM. Plus it has that wonderful trait of making a
huge clump that continues to bloom without needing dividing.  Thanks to
Betty W for making sure I got this one.

SUNNY DISPOSITION is also rapidly becoming a favorite.  It isn't as tall
or as great a grower here as HOM or VM, makes short stalks, but it has
such beautiful flowers..  Lovely pastel yellow, reminds me of daffodil
SPELLBREAKER.  Lloyd Z told me about this one several years ago as a
nice offspring of HOM, but it was so expensive I put off getting it till
last year.

Nothing new in bloom now, but a few more things are putting up stalks.
