    Frequently produces multiple petals and occasionally a 'button' in the center, in cooler weather.

    A wonderful example of the work done by Lisa Hunt (aka Buggy Crazy) "Some years the whole gamut of pearled, doubled and single blooms will appear on the same flowering stem, a surprise with each bloom! "
