Yes, we grow Evelyn's Echo and it has decent PBF, but the 2 darkest PBF
in our garden are Magician's Apprentice (Maryott 89) and Perfect Pitch
(Gatty 92).
Many of the historics have PBF, and the darkest among them that we grow
are Bronze Bell (Schreiner 57), Elsa Sass (Hans Sass 38), and Color
Carnival (DeForest 50).
Some of the above varieties show very little green foliage left when we
trim them for shipping.
