Thanks, Mary! I've grown Bonaventure for the past 6-7 years. If I could only grow one variety it would be the one. I love how the color seems to change from day to day depending on whether it's sunny or cloudy. The one in the photo is between 11-12".
Over the last 4-5 years, I've bought new stock of Canby Centennial from at least 3 suppliers. I have not had a single bloom that looks anything close to the ones in the photo. Nearly every bloom is open centered and just plain ugly. I have a couple tubers from last year but I'm not expecting anything different. It seems that once a plant has gone south, saving the new tubers is a waste of time. No idea what's happened with this one.
