| I'm growing it, but it's still too early to tell on this one. The bloom form seems to be good, it holds it's bloom for a good while, but won't REALLY know until I see if it returns next year. Gorgeous this year, though! |

| I have double scoop bubble gum. Planted this spring. I'm afraid it will bloom itself to death. I have picked off two spent blooms, they last forever. 14 on the plant blooming now, and more buds coming. i can hardly see the plant for all the flowers. I'll be interested to see if it returns next year. |

| Thank you for the insight. You're right, flower girl. It seems to bloom excessively...which is great unless it blooms itself out. It appears to be a sturdy plant, and the double bloom is amazing. I guess only time will tell. I'd love to get cranberry, raspberry and bubble gum. |

| Who names these plants? Really? |

| I just planted these yesterday with some red switch grass, Shenandoah, and Japanese silver grass. The orange berry is stunning! I can't wait to fill out the rest of the bed next year. |

| Its now Sept and double scoop bubble gum is still going strong. I first posted about this one in June. I have lost track of how many spent flowers I've cut off, they seem to last forever. There are always more coming. Its now surrounded by perennial ageratum and looks gorgeous. |
