Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Popular since Victorian times the picotee forms never fail to attract attention, we never seem to list it because it's always sold out by catalog time. If you are going to grow plants in the vulgaris section, these are hard to beat. I've left quite a trail of these in the various places I've gardened and I keep meaning to stick a few in our current gardens but never seem to get around to it.
