The odd part of this scenario is that the side stalks bloomed first. Which is why I thought it was an historic mixed in with the hybrids. So I tied yarn to them to mark them for transplant.
About a week after the ones that looked like historic were finished blooming. The middle stalk burst into bloom with the pretty hybrid blossoms branching off.
So then I careful loosened the rhizome to gently pull out the smaller stalks and they were the same plant. Just branching from the base of the stalk. I was absolutely dumbfounded.
