This Gray

looks to me more like the Gray Morning Mist - Which tells me it must have the same genes ???
When I grew this one last year some of the blooms were a Lighter Pale Plum Color and Some were Gray. Both on the SAME VINE, but the Bloom didn't resemble Gray MM.
The Color of your Bloom looks to be a lighter Gray.

The Gray Morning Mist that has remained True for several years is a sport of my Henka-Blue Type, and The Gray Haze came from seeds that I grew from Gail 'golgi' that ended up to be Gray and not what she had originally grown.

If your blooms remain consistant, I will assume you have Gray Morning Mist because of the details of the bloom, but if it starts throwing Plum colors, then maybe Ron can share his knowledge as to why we would get two entirely different colored blooms on the same vine.

This is the second year for these to be grown out, so I don't have the answers yet. On the one vine that I am growing, the blooms to me look like Gray Morning Mist also. I will post the only photo that I have gotten from the vine that I am growing because it is growing at one of the city facilities, and I don't get there as often as I would like for photos, so I can't make any good comparisons.

This is SO PRETTY!

I still think you bloom is 'Rebecca'. The coloration in the center is lighter than most of the blooms. Ron may be able to tell us more about your bloom.

My vines too are a tangled mess. I tried to pull out a few from this particular vine just so I could get some seeds separately. This one is growing with other purpureas, and I'm not about to try to untangle that mess.

Let me look up the photo of my bloom and see if I can find Ron's explanation of this bloom. If I can't we may have to beg him to repeat it.
