@Hazelcrestmikeb traded with me in October of 2022, and one of the plants he sent me was Raspberry Ripple Cupcake. I don't usually write reviews of plants after only one year, but I'm making an exception in this case because this plant is exceptional!
Raspberry Ripple Cupcake deserves the many awards it has won. Mike sent me three fans; I have six one year later. The plant has bloomed and rebloomed from April to August, and has absolutely thrived in its first year here. Best of all, it hasn't shown a speck of rust. It is one of the prettiest and most unusual-looking doubles I have--and I love doubles. I planted it in a prime spot near my front walk, and I am glad I did as many visitors have commented on it on their way to my front door.
I look forward to enjoying this lovely cultivar for many years to come. Thanks, Mike!
