LOW HO SILVER is throwing up a bloomstalk. I just planted this 8
>weeks ago after receiving it via mail order. Amazing! Has this
happened
>to anyone else before?
Yes. Several times in the past I have ordered plants and had rebloom on
them by fall. At the moment I have Merit reblooming. It was sent to me
by Linda Doffek in Wisconsin. The pieces she sent were huge, and one was
smaller than the other. The larger of the two is the one reblooming.
Though I am not an expert, I believe that the rebloom stalks are already
set in the fan when they are shipped from their home garden. In the past
I have bought cultivars, received them in the summer, planted them and
experienced fall rebloom the very same year and never experience rebloom
on it ever again. Stinger and Irish Moss were two such varieties.
Hopefully Low Ho Silver will continue to rebloom for you since it's
registered as one.
