I have noticed that springs where we have an unusual amount of rain can trigger some rebloom in plants that otherwide wouldn't.


Then in a lot of Texas folks may see more rebloom than they are accustomed to seeing. However, I grow all mine in containers. Large containers, true, but I think any container situation is not the same as ground plants. I don't really think extra rain in the spring would last long enough to help with rebloom in a container grown plant. It sure helps with keeping them watered, but I quickly had to resume with the schedule of supplemental water. If they had been in the ground in good beds, that wouldn't have been necessary. I think you could add container grown vs. in ground growth to one of the variables for rebloom. Those I'm seeing it on this year are in the containers for their second season now. A couple did it the first season, but it's new for the others.
