I'd like to know if anyone else has made such a display for any other
single cultivar. And I'd also like Carol to tell how she came up with the
idea. Did she have a lot of land to fill? I imagine this bed as an
excellent educational display, a highlight of the local garden tour for
novices such as myself who know diddly-squat about breeding.
