For quite a while, my Rob's AV's have been great. Several though have started to sucker like CRAZY. What is going on? Do some of Rob's do this after a while? I know AV's can do this, but several of my Rob's have been nutty.
What's up with Rob's AV's
Sally, I don't know any more than you do except that I only ordered from Rob's once...........and that was because his minis and semiminiatures suckered so badly. Maybe this is true for all minis (it seems to me)
Sally - which ones did you get? My Chilly Willy is a potful of suckers . . . I think I've pulled some blooms off, thinking those tiny leaves may be suckers . . . the Cherry Soda and Fuzzy Navel haven't suckered hardly, but then, they've hardly bloomed, either . . . Pretty when they do, though!
I lost two Chilly Willys because I couldn't control the suckering and finally gave up, but don't you give up!
Well, it isn't all minies. Most of my mini's and semi's are fine. Rob's Scrumptious and Rob's Miss Sniffle. Scrumptious isn't as bad. I cut the top off of Sniffles. ha. I am going to wait and see if I can control them. They are darling, but getting that amount of suckers out is hard, so teeny.
Rob's mini/semi never seemed worth the trouble to me. Always a pot full of suckers! I stopped growing any of his.

There was one sucker I had saved last month . . . I looked at it this morning after I posted to this thread this morning . . . my sucker has suckers!
