    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This glad fairly demands to be paired with big red dahlias and stems of Lucifer crocosmia - lots of color, texture and surfaces to entertain your eyes. Full, ruffled white petals are accented with a lipstick red splotch marking each flower as it unfurls up the stem. Not to be confused with the Van Morrison song of the same name - still, both are easy to like.
