I actually have more problems with the smaller blooms that have bunches on one plant. Indeed, they just crimp over. Don't know why. They are in good soil and are fed right. Rebecca's World is a good example. They were okay earlier on in the summer (love the colors) but then they started 'crimping'. I like that word. It really expresses what they look like. I checked and I have more formal decorative than any other - all sizes. That would be a good summary report to create counting how many of each form and size. Water lily form is a winner for me, anemone is okay but rather depends on the color. I find the recurved cacti to be more eye appealing than the big boofy decorative maybe because they are more complex and with some of the colors like Taylor Swift, it enhances that recurved structure.
From -60 Alaska to +100 Virginia. Wahoo
