I have had Bradley Bernard several years, I really like this UF. I received it as a small single fan in 2012, took 2 or 3 years to really start multiplying, but I have a nice clump now. It blooms well, nice big blooms. I think it is a child of Trahlyta, which you can tell, I think I rather like Bradley Bernard better. |

I received Bradley Bernard as a gift two years ago. It was small, so I put it in a holding bed the first season. I moved it to a permanent position last summer. It has not bloomed yet, but it did increase and bulk up well. To be fair, the holding bed position was quite shady. It is in a sunny spot now, so it should bloom this summer. Update, May 2, 2018 Bradley Bernard is now greening up, and I counted at least seven fans. Touch_of_sky on the LA |

I've had Bradley Bernard since 2014. The photo below was taken in 2015. I need to get some updated photos taken this year. Yes, you definitely can see Trahlyta in it. I got BB not only because I think it's a very nice looking DL but Bradley is my brothers name, so it represents him in my garden. BB has been a slow increaser in my garden. (But I like that just fine.) I don't think it gets as tall as its registered height for me. |

We have grown Bradley Bernard for about three summers. We sell much of it each summer, and it quickly grows back to a sizeable clump by the following spring. We send multiple fans, not just DF's. So, for us in NW GA (zone 7), it is a fast increaser. We actually shipped five DF+ this week and still have several fans left to increase. It will be a nice clump this time next year.

Bradley Bernard has done well here. It has been here for about six years. Slow increaser in a somewhat part shade spot.
