I just bought a Brunette in April. It was greenhouse raised and had 2 flowers. I think they are so cute,

I put it on the same arbor-like construction I made several years ago where my Asao has been blooming since at least 03. I love the way it reaches it's face above the arbor to the sky in this picture from 05. There are buds on it now. This was my first surviving plant from a 4 inch Roseville pot. It was before I knew about the forums, so I planted it directly into the ground, snd suprise, it lived.

I think I had some semi-double flowers last year, but they were so high I couldn't tell for sure.
