Is Jackmanii still the choice of the pack,
or is that day long past?

Depends what you want to achieve, we find its a class one wilter and we
have nothing but trouble with it, flowers well about once ever 3 years,
lots of other people have no trouble with it and rate it highly
If it were me I would chose Gipsy Queen one of the many Jackmanii
lookalikes
