I thought that it would be interesting to look at which relatively young seedlings are exhibiting repeat bloom. By “repeat bloom” I do not mean one or two weeks of continuous bloom. I mean when there was a period of bloom, then none, and at least one more period of bloom (or bloom all season).
The first entry is the year of germination. (There is no floral significance to the order presented; the order depended on where the seedling was in my many seedling beds.)
