The plant was free from the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society's "Plant Divide" held last September where PHS members could pick up free rooted perennials or shrubs.

I was surprised when it began to form buds, but I guess it thought the winter inside was spring and summer and then when put outside where it has been cool this spring, it bloomed like it was fall.
