The last of the 2008 season. When I first grew these in 2007, I knew little about them, and could find no informative pictures on the Internet.

For sure. The cultivar is not the most photogenic. I always find it hard to get a good shot of the plant, but now that the other vegetation is removed one can get a fair look.
