| Posted by lauribob (N Central Wash. - the dry side - Zone 5b) on May 20, 2016 12:11 PM While the blossoms on this variety are enormous and stunning, they are so heavy that they are pulled down into the foliage facing the ground. Not a particularly good garden look, in my opinion. They do make lovely cut flowers. [ Reply to this comment | |
