Good to see it has survived the gm....

I am hoping gall midge never makes it here. I keep soda bottles around so that any bud that starts to deform gets picked and put in them with the lid on tight; and I do that all season long.

Wylie never heard of that before.

I'm the same Wylie but I go round with a bucket every morning during the gm season, they definitely weren't as bad this year,I've noticed over the years they seem to favour certain varieties more than others strangely, I know someone on the BHHS was seeing if it worked to grow one badly affected plant as a sacrifice suppose you'd call it,to draw them away from other plants, my worst is always 'Edge of Darkness' as I've probably mentioned before I've only had this one 2-3 years and it does seem to be a close second, just a good job that both of them rebloom :-)
Thanks Dd, typically this is one of my favourites.
