I'm a fan of Chill. I bought it in '19, and it took a year to settle in. I went from 5 fans to 8 fans last year, and it was really settled in. I got 94 blooms on those 8 scapes. Registration suggests you get 8 blooms per scape, and if you do the math, I'm getting just under 12. I love seeing that, because usually I'm writing something like "I don't get the registered bud count, but that's not unusual here."

It's not registered as a rebloomer, and that checks out, here. But it has a double dose of Early and Often, a pretty consistent rebloomer for me, so I'm hoping to use it with other early rebloomers to see what I can do here.

I bought it when I was adding EE blooming plants. The earliest it bloomed for me was June 16, which is more like the beginning of E season, here. But it is improving and may get there.

I'll try to get a clump shot of it this spring. There are many days when there are a lot of blooms going. For now, here's one showing more that 8 buds.
