'County of York' or 'Catalode' is supposed to be a leggy plant, but mine is planted in a place where it gets full sun for a good part of the day, including many hours of mid-day full sun in the summer. So my plant has not become as leggy as it could, and it buds up at almost every terminal branch. I have not had any full trusses yet, but I've only had it since Spring 1999, when I purchased it at our local ARS Ann Arbor chapter plant sale. The flowers are very large, and it is a big-boned plant.
