Until 3 years ago I lived on the Adelaide Plains (Salisbury) where there are
only a couple of very light frosts each year. Some dwarfs and medians
flowered for me, some didn't. Regular performers Taja, Making Eyes, Sweet
and Cool, Peach Eyes and Dew Kissed(rebloomed) However since moving to a
considerably frostier climate the following which never or rarely flowered,
Candy Walk, Posh, Nimble Toes and Zing Me are magnificent, and all dwarfs
and medians seem to flower better. My Pink and Orange Tall beardeds flower
much better in the colder climate also.
