{Disarmed} Re: Flight of Butterflies


Claire,
 
Flight of Butterflies does fairly well here, blooming 2 out of 3 years, until this year when it's struggling again.
 
The attached image is of a seedling from the first generation batch of FOB x I. setosa canadensis. All but 3 of the seedlings lean heavily toward the I. siberica side of the family and crosses to Siberians will look strongly Siberian. This one, like its siblings, seems to be affected by day length rather than weather and has bloomed every year with a small amount of rebloom. Height averages 41".
 
Let me know off list if you'd like to play with a start and I'll add it to the list of things shipped this fall.
