Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Grown from Josef Jurasek's seed banked material from an old Turkish collection that germinated very well, I don't have data but suavis is a rare Turkish endemic that grows in the Black Sea costal regions, forget about checking your garden books for this one, its an almost unheard of rarity.
