You are the only person I see who has this plant in a very hot climate, it seems most people who have this dormant are up north. I will be looking forward next year to your report, seems a lot of people just recently got this plant. I love how the blooms look in the photos, but will wait for a report and especially a report on the rust resistance. How is it looking so far?

@Seedfork, I have Wild One, and I have been pleased with it. I bought it because of the pictures of its dramatic blooms, huge and vivid in shades of orange, red, and yellow. Based on the other reviews, I was expecting it to take awhile to settle in, but to my pleased surprise, it bloomed in its second season (2021). It is slow to increase, but it has held its own since then and has bloomed again this year. It is not a profuse bloomer, but the flowers are worth waiting for, in my opinion. It has not shown a speck of rust.



I am adding a note on July 24, 2023, to say that this summer, Wild One rebloomed for me.
