After the winter in the garage, Eternity is now out and planted in a nursery tree pot. It shed most of the leaves after it got moved outside, but the buds kept growing and the two pods left from a flush of blooms late last summer are still hard and green. With the wind I have, if these were bells instead of soft tissue blooms, the clanging would deafen me :). Adora and Isabella are also blooming, but they are much stingier with the blooms. I think I'm going to cut Isabella down to the soil level and see what happens. It seems much more prone to mites than the other three varieties. Eternity and Tequila Sunrise are forming new buds galore, but the other two or not. So Adora and Isabella may not get to stay beyond this summer based on behavior. I think this will look better for a later round of bloom when it grows a few more leaves.
