Like Linda, I can't get CE to take firm hold here. I did get it through
one entire year once, and the doggone thing even rebloomed for me, then
promptly died. The second time I tried it, it died over winter and never
made it to the first bloom season. But that's better than BREAKERS,
which I've tried twice and which still hasn't managed to make it through
its first winter in my garden.
I find it particularly disheartening when I can't even get such
cold-climate rebloomers to stay alive long enough to bloom even once!
