If these all arose from one plant, which I think is what you've said, =
then they might well be a self-sterile clone. Was Bob McCartney's plant =
one of many or all from one original?

Have you tried crossing with another triphyllum? Hard to do if they =
flower so far apart. When mine flower I may give it a shot with =
stewardsonii, which flowers very late. That could  result in some =
interesting offpring. Jim

I agree.  And I have some with blue-purple  stems that will may still =
be viable when it finally appears.   Adam. in Glenview, IL USDA  ZONe 5a
