I acquired 2 large fans of Antique Rose in April 2016. (Thanks to Karen for sharing!) It has been in a pot all this time waiting to be transplanted into a raised bed this Fall 2016. (Too hot to do any transplanting in Spring and Summer.)

It bloomed the beginning of June with some gorgeous blooms! I don't know for sure, but I believe it went into heat dormancy over the summer, as the current foliage looks skinny and new. It remains at 2 fans. There is a rusty plant right next to it, but Antique Rose is not showing any signs of rust on it's leaves, so the 1.0 rust resistance rating may be very accurate. I will be keeping an eye on it to verify!

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
