Thanks Colette, NCCPG sounds like a great group! I'm assuming they then
make the plants available for sale??
What's H. m. lilacina flore pleno like? I have never heard of this one.
Sorry about your double dames violet ! It may reappear. I thought I'd
lost a pink variety once and it turned up in an unexpected place a year or
so later. If it flowered and set seed last year (if it is one that comes
true from seed), there might just be a chance.
