Nursery contributed plant descriptions

An All America Selections Winner in 1933, this variety has vivid semi-double yellow flowers that are deliciously scented with no trace of the odd pungent aroma of some varieties. Gather handfuls and place in blue-green glass vases for beautiful bouquets. Avoid too much nitrogen, which will encourage lush leaves but fewer flowers.
