Barbarry Melody....the leaves and bud formation on yours are identical. What a coincidence I have just bought 2 tubers of that.  |

I like your honesty Tel and I know you must be disappointed, but you knew early on that it was not trialling well. Some you win, some you lose. Your turn will come. It would be funny if mine turned out to be a beauty. |

It would be funny if mine turned out to be a beauty. I am not too disappointed, like you said I knew it was not right when the first blooms came on the plants at the allotment. Will grow a few this year and see what it does, if it comes the same it will be dropped. There is still the Red Small Dec seedling, to look forward too this season.  |

Those are 6 up. They are naturally on the small side of "smalls".
None of my smalls get anywhere near the rings, except brenda t, so how big they'll get for you would depend on how big you normally get your blooms. But what they lack in size they make up for in form.
So really, I'd go 5 up.

Will have to see how this seedling does this year, plenty of cuttings to come off it. Small Decorative, did not fade in the sun.  Taken the first 13 cuttings this morning. |
