I used to have this cultivar, but for some reason it did not return this past season for me. While it never did increase much, if at all, from the original 5 fans I put in, not one fan showed up last season. Prior to that it was a nice, but not great plant for me. Bud counts were not terribly high and branching was light...but the blooms were, by far, my darkest. Damn near black at times with a slightly lighter hue as you get closer to the petals edges. Never got many photos of this one while it was here either...
