5/2016- I'm really liking this one. I planted it in a heavy clay bed that gets full, all day sun, and it's going well. Obviously this is a tough location, and some plants won't take it. RP hasn't had any die back issues, and I haven't noted any serious fungal issues. I don't recall fragrance, but that may be because I haven't bent down far enough to smell it. Bright red blooms last a long time, and resist burning (so far).
