So, I'm about to purchase my first AV's! And I was browsing through a bunch of sites and came across the variety called Everfloris or Space Babies. Apparently the seeds were aboard a shuttle for 6 years and they flower continuously!

I'd really love to have flowering AV's all year round.

Do they REALLY flower all year? They're far more expensive than other varieties! However, if they produce more flowers and are always in bloom, that would be worthwhile!

Here are some links- http://www.selectivegardener.com/Catalog.php?category=5 and http://www.bluebirdgreenhouse.com/html/space01.htm

Thank you!

Ellen
