Well, sort of in Zone 3. The SDB 'REFINED' rebloomed twice
in August - only one to do so BUT the stalwart IMMORTALITY
has four (4!) tall bloomstalks (3 on one cultivar and one
on the second). Unfortunately, while a lot of folks are
experiencing drought or near-drought conditions, we are
inundated with cold, monsoon-like days and nights. :(
I fear IMMORTALITY will get water-logged like last Sept.
and the large buds will get blasted and we will never see
a Sept. rebloom. This temperate rain-forest weather haunts me.
Another consideration, frost is overdue here....we are lucky
and hold our collective breath as we get winter preparations
ready for the gardens in the mountains. First, I have to
plant my new wonderful peonies in my spanking, new garden
30 miles from here (as soon as my 104 degree fever lifts,
that is!). Also, the bulbs...zzzzzzzz
Cheers,
Ellen (in the White Mountains where glorious Autumn reigns)
