Hi,Sheri! Does Edith Wolford ever rebloom for you ? It's supposed to be a fairly reliable
"warm weather" rebloomer. I added it last year, and am awaiting the first bloom ( I hope ! ) this spring. I doubt it will fall bloom for me ,as we're a little too "short-seasoned" here, but it's such a looker!...Arlyn

Edith Wolford bloom depends on the year. Some years great & some not. It is very reliable in CA.

I lost Edith a year or so ago. Not hardy for me. No re-bloom in my area; but then I did not encourage it either!

I lost my EW here also. It bloomed the first year after I planted it and then never bloomed again and it just seemed to diminish until it was no longer there. I have not replaced it.

Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?

Sounds just like my experience! I have heard it was a poor grower and have yet to replace.

I don't care for EW color pattern, anyway.
