I may have misled you. That "poly" was close to the end of its bloom cycle last year. Judy, the hybridizer, says that it is prone to doing that.
I don't have any first blooms yet but my scapes are popping up like crazy now. MR BUTTERS was one of my first blooms for me in July! I guess I have a few more weeks to wait. Thanks for the compliment.
