'Cheater' Scape on Broadway Starfish

We planted Broadway Starfish, purchased from Floyd Cove, a few weeks ago and it already has several scapes opening flowers. This has been on my wife's want list for several years and she was finally able to get it this spring. It has a place in our new bed of tet miniatures, right by the patio.

A very distinctive bloom, more beautiful than any pictures I've seen of it. Very diamond-dusted, oh-so-slightly bitoned, beautifully ruffled, and a very clear red eye. All in a nice, small package. What can I say, but my wife, Nancy, has good taste? My tastes run to big and bold (vulgar?), but I have to look at her choices once in a while.

We know that many growers recommend removing the early scapes, but we find it hard to do that on a new one!
