Becky, I had Lavender Stardust for one bloom season...it disappeared and never came back. I have Strutters Ball, which is listed as a dormant. It bloomed last year and it looks like it's coming back this year. Royal Palace Prince also listed as a dormant has bloomed for two or three years in garden and has steadily increased. I ordered Purple Cheetah, Rock Solid, and Mountain Wild Flower this fall and will give them a couple of years to see how they perform in my area. We had a rather warm winter this year, but all three cultivars disappeared for a few weeks and are now peeking out. I hope they all bloom this spring. I'm in zone 8 outside of Atlanta.
