Nursery contributed plant descriptions

"Pre-eminent" and "breath-taking," Scott Ogden raves about this "refined, modern Campernelle" in Garden Bulbs for the South. It's "stunningly fragrant," he says, and _ maybe best of all _ a few bulbs "will multiply tenfold in three or four years." With 2-3 neatly rounded flowers per stem, its mid-late blooms extend the joyful jonquil season. 7 Y-Y, 18-20", zones 6-8S(10WC)
