I've had Raspberry Bouquet for many years now. It has been a reliable performer. It tends to bloom mid-season for me. Typically it blooms for about a month. The flowers are always perfect and have never been bothered by thrips in my garden. The blooms have a nice, vibrant color and are somewhat fragrant. It has not been a fast increaser, but has made a small clump for me. I would definitely recommend it.
