Ron,

Thanks a lot! Of course it helps---especially since i am collecting seeds for future swapping.

I have had a Grandpa Otts now for 2 years. Of course--the bloom is beautiful, but it is way too aggressive for my limited bed spaces. Had too many volunteers also----It was hard to tell them from my 4 O'clocks "Broken Colors" as the seedlings look very similar.

Mt Grandpa Otts is, once again, climbing my house and is now twining around the downspout by the second floor. I think I may just cut the stem at the bottom. I do not feel like having all the seeds fall into my bed again. Besides--It may be choking out my "Multi Blue" Clematis that it is growing next to.....I'd rather have the Clematis.....
It also intertwined in all the stems of the Rose bush and the Azalea next to it.....
I am starting to hate MG's!!!!!!

Here's the Grandpa!
