Hi Linda!
I thought I remember TEA LEAVES being a very unusual "art" color...
and I don't remember it reblooming. Of course as with varieties like
Thornbird, I think it has an "ideal" soil that brings out it's best
appearance,
maybe "better" not even being the same shade as the registered description.
Any others that are prettier in other soils than in their "home"
soil (ie where they were born)? I must say that several I have dropped
just didn't end up being that spectacular in MY garden, I'd have done better
to just keep the catalog picture of it on a stick in the garden. Ah well,
gives us more excuses....er...REASONS....to keep trying new varieties, eh?
