This opened today. The flowers are on 2 different scapes, and there is a 3rd scape. I measured it, and it is 9"across. This is a really great performer and will bloom into the fall. I have many new seedlings that will be flowering this year with this as a parent.

I had no idea that they could be so big , Wylie .
It is lovely.
Hi , Simbad , there was a whole rash of gardening programmes in January , Terra put us on red alert !

Thanks! This is the plant I divided and sent a piece to you, Simbad.
Usually it is the spider types that are huge (Aldersgate is one that is 16" across), but this one is one of the largest pattern types I have.

Thanks - I am afraid I am having another warm and sunny day, the type that encourages everything to start growing. Some of this years new seedlings are huge, and will get planted out in the next couple of weeks. They are already in boxes outside over night; and since they can bloom in only 8 months, this fall should see a lot of new flowers.

It's wet and windy here , Wylie !
Good to hear that you seem to have Spring on the way .

Not so good - I spent the afternoon mowing the grass, again. ;)

Agreed! It is one of my best performers, and will rebloom several times.
