I ordered MINERAL SPRINGS in July from Maryott's Gardens. The fans were huge and healthy, with large roots. I originally planted MS in a pot for a few weeks, but should have planted it directly in the ground. I think it would have bloomed sooner. It bloomed in late September. There were four buds. Two bloomed on the same day and the other two fell off. I don't know whether it was the change of weather. The temps dropped down to the sixties. MS is big and beautiful. It's planted in an area that gets about 6 hours of sun per day. I plan to reorder in the spring as it is sold out now.
The pictures that I posted to the database generated some questions because the colors were so different from those already posted. I contacted Bill Maryott and sent him the pictures, thinking it may have been mislabeled. Mine was more mauve than purple. After a couple of days of emails, he determined that it was indeed MINERAL SPRINGS for sure. He thinks the reds and blues in my camera may be off a bit. It is a beautiful flower and it opened without any hangups even with the heavy ruffling.
