Nigh Embers grows really well here and it is so pretty. I have been growing it only 2 years but it has settled in to already grow the registered height of 30" and has had a bud count of 9 with 4 way branching. I am happy with that but it may get better with maturity.. It is early starting to bloom July 16 but I did not record the length of bloom time. It doubles every bloom. I have no diseases so leaf streak is not an issue.
