    So far this hem hasn't shown rust in my garden. It is in a pot away from other hems, but many others which I also bought a few months ago got rust quickly, and mostly badly in the warm showery weather we had. So I will watch this one.

    I am pretty sure I still have this one although the blooms appear way bigger than 4". However they are very recurved so it's hard to tell. The huge eye is a very blue violet surrounded by a narrow dark purple violet margin.

    It is wonderfully fragrant. Quite strong and a nicer scent than many hems. It doesn't appear to be a ruster even in our humidity, mild temperatures and often showery weather. Also it has lots of blooms. Mine is in a large pot inside a fence protected from chewing critters.
