Thanks, Paul - sounds like one I need to try here. Will put that one on
my wish list. I think I remember that you treat for leaf spot and
insect related disease, so it might not do as well for me as for you,
but it's worth a try.
Do you sell? I prefer getting rhizomes from a similar climate when I
can.
<I originally grew Frank Adams in Indiana, Zone 5 and it always did
well. Always had nice foliage. It had nice tall and strong stalks with
nice branching and has always bloomed. It is vigorous as well. I think
it has better foliage than Immortality as I grow it also. It does not
go dormant in the Summer and is generally larger in stature. It is more
green than blue-green while Immortality is blue-green. It has behaved
quite the same here in Raleigh NC, Zone 7. The standards on Frank Adams
are quite a bit more gold-tan than cream also.>
