One of my favorites.

Sir Francis Drake

Hardy in zone 5. Makes large fans.

This is an amazing plant. I have grown it for four or five years in my zone 8 garden. Grows fast and makes a great clump. Only draw back is I find it is not pod fertile.

Extremely low bud count here even though it multiplies readily.
