I have had Bluegrass Shadows since Spring of 2021. It had one or two blooms the first year, but seemed to have settled in by the Summer of 2022 and bloomed nicely. Probably one of the most asked about dls in our garden, it is definitely a show stopper when it's blooming. I agree it isn't super tall but it does bloom above the foliage here. I need to count the fans when it comes back this year and see if I have had any increase. (last year there was none)
