Charley, is it own root or grafted?

Think it may have gone own-root, but not sure as I did not pull away any of the wet valley soil, about 2 yr. ago, when I brought it home. It was in bad shape but bloomed for me well then. My soil is pretty good sandy and I use alfalfa every year. The little red ( I hope) are coming from what looks like the budhead. I am not going to dig around in it yet to disturb.

I hope it grows like a weed for you!

Pictures? Always nice to have when asking a question, especially a close-up of the area with a problem.

I will have to send pics later. Cam is needing charge on batteries. Good idea
