We will be a balmy 62F on Saturday then all hell breaks loose. We won't get out of the 30's Sunday and I'll wake up Monday to the tune of 17F! Our lows the rest of the week won't be above the mid-20's. Ouch.
I contacted a really well-known, really respected nursery and asked if they happened to have the 'Coronation'. The hybridizer/owner contacted me and said that he could take a division of his plant and the cost would be $150 plus shipping. Now I sort of know how "valuable" my and Ted M's plants are. I think my plant is just about ready to "pop" its flowers.
