This cultivar is doing VERY WELL in my zone! Spectacular large (10" across), fragrant blooms. I had no idea they grow this big. Not complaining though. What a beauty.
I plan to plant more next season. I can hardly wait!

Tom Pouce performs very well for me here in zone 6. This beauty always draws compliments with a mid to late summer display. The blooms lend an elegant feel to my garden, and the texture and color of the flowers is so unique.

I grew 5 of these this year in Southern Alberta. I disliked their huge floppy stamens that break open before the blossom is barely open. I found the flower substance to be weak and floppy and the color inconsistent. Other varieties did much better in my garden.
