Yes, Birder, you are definitely dating yourself!

I love two - cantabrigiense Biokovo and ANY kind of sanguineum striatum. Biokovo has started to spread nicely for me. I can pick up buts and move it around, and I can pick up tine bits that turn into beautiful clumps.

Love it with roses and peonies.

I have found striatum to be vigorous and repeat blooming. I have it in pure white, pure pink, and striated. The ferny foliage is great, and it is a lot more vigorous than I would have though, spreading and reblooming. A very different effect - sort of feathery.
