My 'Incense', 'Purple Possum', 'White Wedding', and Maypop all are a bit too small still to bloom, but hopefully, next year!

Very nice! Do you have to bring the less hardy ('Lady Margaret', 'Purple Possum') in for the winter?

No. They are pretty sheltered where they are, and they have a good layer of mulch. We don't get much snow or frost where I am located. We did have one hard freeze that knocked them both back a bit last winter, but they survived with very minimal damage. For good measure, I always take a few cuttings each year, just in case! :)

Lovely blooms. I have 'Panda' which has yet to bloom.
