I wonder why anyone would want Snow Flurry or why anyone cares about it.
I went through two in different environments and both died---not from
neglect. Methinks it is like unto an oral contract===not worth the paper it's
written on.
It is quite unattractive. As is Spilt Milk, IMO.
The both of them are way overrated as garden plants.
I suspect that the "unusual" variegation is some benign form of virus. I see
absolutely no reason to try to introduce it into new cultivars.
Jim, you can get a division from Soules Garden--maybe.
