Really winding down here...

18 years ago

New in my garden this year, very short (less than 12" high) but should be 30" next year:

Just planted last Fall, and is blooming late. That's odd, because it's listed as a mid-season bloomer:

{{gwi:921679}}

And it's edge:

{{gwi:921680}}

A very plain looking bloom by itself, I bought this one because it's tall (44"), and large (6.5"), and late, and in the right location, it shows off nicely:

I posted this one before, but this time it looks more pinkish:

Some shark's teeth:

By golly, I got a rebloom, practically unheard of in this neck of the woods. Probably because it came from Marietta's. It's listed as a M-L bloomer. It first bloomed on June 27, which I guess would be late for North Carolina, but that's early here! Next year it will probably bloom late and I won't get a rebloom:(

Oh well, I'll take what I can get! For those who like UFOs, it's a cascade form:

Still waiting on a few really late bloomers to open....

Nice ones! I especially like that vibrant yellow of AFTER ALL. Plus I think that BERMUDA CORAL is really pretty. I can just immagine it in a nice big clump, it would look smashing :-))

If you seriously want rebloom you might want to look into the "instant" rebloomers because of your shorter growing season. Both Richard Norris and Brain Culver are known for having some of them. Plus Malanie Masons SUMMER RE-RUN is a great rebloomer.

My After All is blooming a bit early this year. In the previous years (5-6) I've had it, it always bloomed very
late and LAST. except for Bitsy. I was always happy to see
it because I like it.

It is a strong plant and once established will increase
readily.
