Now that you mention it, I think I may have seen some blackspot on Red Fairy in the past, but I believe it is typically just the older leaves and the new leaves and blooms have usually obscured the spotty leaves by the time they start shedding. Glad Koko Loco is performing so beautifully- I think that one may have to live here next spring! Oh I didn't have to wait for 50 for that goofiness to set in, I've been doing it for 10 years already
Taqiyya, that is rich, beautiful color developing there! You mentioned that you were expecting more yellow, does it effect your garden design negatively? I'm going to watch Teasing Georgia for a year before I decide if it should be moved. These first blooms were during warm, muggy, wet conditions, and now we're in a stretch of sunny, cooler, and dry days. I'm interested to see how this may change the color as current buds open. I've got a perfect alternative spot for it, and that would leave a place open to try another yellow Austin.
