Mark, I'm finally getting around to asking a question about your posting
-- isn't LORELEY an MTB, not a TB? I'm asking because LORELEY is one
I've considered in trying to ID a yellow & purple variegata which
flowered in my Nameless bed this year. My unknown bloomed with the TBs,
had lots of buds per stalk & appears to be quite vigorous but it's
height & flower size certainly suggest an MTB.

I've only found one abbreviated catalog entry for LORELEY where it's
listed as an MTB from Goos & Koenemann, '09 , with a "distinctive
pattern in white, yellow and purple". Can you (or someone?) tell me the
official description, please-&-thank-you?
