My MM with 5 flowers last year. Only 4 this year but petals hit 30 cm.
Any theories about why only 4 flowers this year? Cultural differences or just plant year to year variance?

I used to own the variety 'Charles E' and 'Rex' but gave them to the university. Always enjoyed the plant habit of multi s when growing well.

I am certain it is because I cut back on the fertilizer much more this fall and winter. I only bloomed a few roths this year but they all had lower flower count than usual.
