thanks guys, if you don't mind looking I'll keep posting.
Thanks for the spell check Pieter
Thanks Linda and renaldo
Matt, thanks for your interest I will post a pic of this one when it opens, as for size, this is a new hybrid and I'll have to wait for it to open to see size. It doesn't appear to be a big one so far. It has great piecrusting as parents
'K Snow x 'Spritzer x 'Amethyst Star'
x Warlock'.
As for the others, I selectively breed for colour, fragrance, and size.Most of these flowers are larger than most hostas. The first B&B post, the one with the lighter mid riff has a lenghth of 3 1/2" from pedical to front and a width of 2 1/4'. The black ones are apx 2 1/2" long.
