Oberon46 | From July 11, 2010 to July 5, 2014 | Bloomed I have posted the first bloom dates but it continues to bloom all through the middle of August. Spreads reliably and is easily spread through the garden by digging a clump on the edges and planting elsewhere. This is an evergreen. The bush like base plant remains green, if a little 'slumped' over the winter, but picks up quickly in the spring. It will re-bloom pretty much all summer if you deadhead it. |
