7/11/2017- Still in a pot- has been a blooming fool! 6/7/2019- planted Coretta Scott King last year in a raised bed with irrigation. Hasn't grown too much overall, but is a regular bloomer. Gets blackspot occasionally. I haven't noticed much fragrance. 4h x 2w. I'm hoping it gets bushier. 6/7/2021- Dwindled a lot this past year. I don't know if it will rebound or if it's not long for this world. 8/6/2022- Cut to the ground by a mow/blow crew.
