Peggy Jeffcoat is fragrant and looks precisely like the NOID, so I concur. She''s my favorite double for the reasons you give, DJ., with a special grace and pristine, consistently rounded hose-in-hose form. There are other vanilla doubles out there, but I don't need em (Well, most of the time I can resist. I did just request Scatterbrain). At clump strength, the fragrance may be more noteworthy. I usually appreciate it by picking a bloom. I find her a bit taller than 18'. She seems to be harder to find than many DLs, despite her age and fairly good increase. I think she's popular and that's why the price isn't lower.




When I'm looking at a clump of Peggy Jeffcoat in the garden and there's only me to see it, I feel like going to find some garden visitors to show her beauty to, so it doesn't go wasted. You know what I"m talking about, hem friends. When the daylily is SO BEAUTIFUL you have to go show somebody! DH often gets to see Peggy J for this reason- too good not to share.
