I'm going to bring my two intermedias closer in order to encourage them to BLOOM..... Lots of sheaths but no BLOOMS.....LOL I'll be patient....
Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks very much everyone. hi john -
i am with them; the alba is lovely; which cultivar is it? It's an as yet unnamed clone that I bought about 20 years ago. I nearly killed it in ~2000 - 2002 and then again around 2006. It's been slowly coming back since then.

Real purty John. I still like 'Simon Marcotte' the best.

Lovely bunch, John. And you are correct about cold hardiness. I leave all my intermedias outside in the winter until it goes down into the 30s. They seem to do very well along with the L. purps out there and a few others.

Quite a nice bunch. I like the first one best.
I always prefer this type to the peloric ones.
