'Sheffield' has been around in the trade for some time and you shouldn't
have any trouble picking it up (Blooms carries it). Its one of the lankier
ones and does much better with a mid summer heavy pruning to disbud. If
you're after some good mums, try the newest of the Minnesota series
(carried by Ball) being promoted by Anthony Tessalar of Flower Carpet Rose
fame.
Violet corsica is delightful and does bloom for most of the summer. Having
said that - its a violet. ;-) You'll also find that it is as promiscuous
as any other violet and cross-breeds like mad.
