I've had Patchwork Puzzle for 9 years now and this year it was still around 10 fans strong when I divided it to sell some. I guess because of it's small size I haven't paid too much attention to it over the years, but when I do notice it, I love the blooms. It is one that I need to separate from all the larger ones around it so it can shine.
It begins blooming mid to late June and I have not seen rust on it. No branching or bud count records, but here are a couple of pictures of that.
It sits in front of Law and Order, which is a 6.5" bloom on a 38" scape. Patchwork Puzzle is a 2.75" bloom on a 28" scape. I'm not sure mine ever got even that tall.
The blooms always seem to be perfect and I like the way the pattern shows up on the sepals.
