Some of the doubles are better than other, for sure. I bought a double last year, 'Broken Heart' that came up year one virused last summer. It was obvious in the coloration. I don't think many of them are that full, fluffy double, at least not with my experience here. The fluffier one I can say is Double Vision , also sold as Candy Floss I believe. The earlier introduction of one Ramona had with Exotic Butterfly, I thought was the best of that series. I don't know if what is listed there is one of those. It might be too hot here to get that vibrant color that some of the pictures show. But unless these are advancements from the original doubles, I would say that they are not all that fantastic. The many names that they have all had only confuses me further and dampens the likelihood that I will be getting many of them anymore. But any dark cold day in the Midwest, I won't say that I "never" will. Weak moments happen...Lol.
