Thanks Jim,
I live in zone 6B, about 60 miles due west of Philadelphia but I overwinter
the pots in an unheated greenhouse.  I am starting to plant some out in a
field this year for the first time.  My Super Ellen has produced very few
seed over the years, but this could be one of them.
Or it could be a migrating tag.  I have occasional helpers re-potting and
they don't always pick up the same tag they lay down - a source of great
frustration.
Tim
