Thornbird is absolutely dynamite. I lusted after it for years -- somehow it eluded me. Several years ago, I finally got a rhizome -- planted it and waited for the bloom. Year One -- no bloom. Year two -- no bloom -- moved it to a different spot. Year three -- no bloom. I was beginning to wonder if I had a sterile rhizome!!
This year! Finally!! I got to see it in person!!
Love it!!
