I bought Spring Fling hoping for a white, pink, and yellow flower, and the first year it bloomed I almost wanted to throw it out of the yard. The base color isn't really white, and the pink is more of a rose. The edge didn't amount to much and the flowers just looked plain to me... especially since I wanted teeth and ruffles. Ok... I just decided to pay more attention to my other plants and let this one do whatever it wanted to do. This is the second year it's bloomed for me though, and I was surprised that I actually like it more this year.The edges are a little larger and more developed, and although the colors still aren't exactly pink and white, I've decided I like it enough overall to have it in the yard and enjoy it.
Now for the weird pic of it I posted. Believe me, if they all looked like that I would have loved it from the start... and I'm going to watch it and hope for more, but more than likely it's a fluke. --If I find out different, I will post it! :)
