My 'Sunsprite' was blooming at the time of purchase, early last Spring. It bloomed in what you would call flushes several times. It would be full of blooms, then bare, and back to full bloom until freezing in the early winter. Surprisingly, the later blossoms became larger, nearly twice as large as the early ones. Looking forward to quite a show this summer. The fragrance fills the air within several feet from it. Kind of like a deodorant soap.
