Dear Graham: If you have read the entries just above this, you will have
noted that IMMORTALITY and ENGLISH COTTAGE do well in the far north. E.C.
has some light plicata marking, but counts as a white in the garden. IMM is
pure white in sunlight; in cool weather it is a cold white, and the buds
are lavender. Lloyd Z in Durham NC USA
