    When I first planted 'Streaker' in the gardens and it began blooming, I would have described it as more 'pastel' in tones. In 2022, I moved it to a different location. While both locations I would say are in 'full sun' ... it went from more of a 'morning' sun (6 hours or more) to 'afternoon' sun (full sun by late morning and right through the afternoon). And it went from 'pastel' to very 'vividly vibrant' in my gardens. Just an observation, not sure if this would hold true in other gardens or not.
