Re: TB: Sterling Mistress

Hi, Colleen, I have mixed feelings about Sterling Mistress.  When it first opens in my garden it is a lovely pink on cream plicata with a remarkable glitter of gold dust on the falls.  However the flowers are small and few, and the rhizomes tend to over-multiply, giving poor bloom if it is not divided yearly.  I will keep mine because it was given to me by a friend, but I would not recommend it.

  What is your opinion of Sterling Mistress. We inherited it with the
  business. For me it always seems to have a thin crepe-like texture and small
  flowers and a not very exciting colour . I haven't seen it growing in other
  soils/climates and am not sure if it can look lovely in other conditions or
  to trash it.
