By the way, since it makes tubers, I planted several tubers in another area and should have lots of tubers and hope to persuade Margaret to give it a name. I also have a pot tuber as insurance. The 2nd year seedlings are more vulnerable as there are not many plants of them. I need to remember not to plant the very best second year seedlings at the end of the row. Yes, they look terrific there but they are prone to all kinds of damage there, gophers. hoses pulled over them, and I do not know what else. 
Old picture (2011)of HH Calico when it was really a bright calico flower. We did not grow it for many years as it was crappy seed parent(about 20% of seeds just died after sprouting). I got some stock back from a club member but it is not as bright and good looking.
