I received this plant by accident from Northern Lights in 2021. It really hasn't been all that amazing. The first year it was planted ( 1921), VH waited until September to bloom with three flowers. It took a break in 2022, with no bloom at all. This year, I caught 11 flowers, although there could have been more. It's an ok flower, not so distinctive so far. My plant is nowhere near the stats, so perhaps still settling in. This is one that will have to give up its spot if it doesn't shape up.

Violet Horizons is quite new to our garden. Planted in 2021. It has multiplied fairly well. I find with our high humidity and the rain we have had recently that it blooms on the blotchy side. I can't say that it has reached it's potential yet here. 2 pics. first is after a heavy rainfall the second is a dry hot day.

This one does tend to splotch easily. Wish it were taller and had a higher budcount. I like that it reblooms, and OCCASIONALLY it looks wonderful. The rebloom started in early July last year. I have seen very little of it this year- I may have lost some fans in the brutality of this past winter/early spring.
