The timing on your SEARS TOWER is odd, Ken. Confused

It is registered as a Midseason bloomer. Here I would say that it is at or pushing Mid Late.

Down here (I think I'm south of you, but surely not THAT far south) it reliably begins bloom the last week of June or first week of July, and ends in early August. (It generally overlaps just a bit with OSTERIZED, which usually begins bloom at the end of May or first week of June, and finishes the first week of July. OSTERIZED was a bit late starting this year, with FFO 6-7, and ended late, LFO somewhere 7-14 to 7-18 (we were out of town).)

This year FFO on SEARS TOWER was on 6-25, and the clump has one bud to go; it should bloom any day now.
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
