Bev,
I just transplanted my clump of Zounds and the clump fell apart into separate
divisions.
Sounds like a sport to me.
I seem to recall there is a sport of Zounds in the trade that has the
chartreuse edge and green center. Anyone out there know what it is? In my
experience, I have found that Zounds tends to produce mutants(or whatever the
scientific terminology is).
Remove the leaves that are half and half.
Patsy Stygall: You have a sensational mutation of Zounds. Please tell us all
about it. Was it a separate division? I understand you will register it this
year, yes? As I recall, you might name it Doktor Faustus since it grows like
the devil?(Patsy has so many gorgeous sports, seedlings and hybrids I have to
give directions!)Anastasia, go out the southeast back door. Walk to drive.
Take a left. Go by your collection of the Corydalis cashmeriana.
It is on left of that.
