Ask any American commercial nurseryman their opinion of perennial stocks
from Holland. They might say that the opposite is the case--much
mislabelled material comes out of the Land of Wooden Shoes. One problem is
that plants are grown from the seed of named varieties, then sold labelled
as that variety.
