Of my 'Baby Bunting' family, this one seems to be faring the best after being waterlogged 2 years ago.

Hi Ann, that's not a sport it's just some late season interesting leaves. Each year one or two plants will do this.

Not much change in this one. I guess it's reached maturity.

Cameo is a strong performer for me. It goes well with Vinca Illumination.

Ed - what happened to yours that was showing the very wide margins above?

'Cameo' July 3, 2015. I put this one in a large pot along with other members of the family. In so doing, I also got a couple of small divisions from the plant for a sale next spring.
