I am one that grows mostly hybrids. I have tried many an heirloom, mostly I am either really disappointed or if not I just didn't see what the fuss was all about.
This year having gotten interested in growing more yellows so an pleased with my Julilee Plants which are Heirloom enough for me.
And Also liking my Carolina Golds and Lemons Boys. I think those are really heirloom. But top honors to the Jaunne Flamme's. Boy those are marvelous!
