Firestorm was a non-performer for me last year even though it was planted in full sun and given regular drinks of water. I have not had a chance to witness its blooms as a result.
I HAVE, however, seen this in bloom at another Michigan gardener's place and it had multiple poly blooms which were extraordinary!
Here is one I took a picture of and posted to the database:
It's brilliant in person and is a LARGE bloom size, which I love, so this flower really makes an impact.
Because it isn't performing in my garden, I'm reluctant to recommend it, but it DID grow well in the MI garden north of here, so I'll simply say that it's beautiful and anyone who can grow it will likely be glad they did.
