Chris, You have a good example of Elegans. There are a lot of diffrent
forms of Elegans floating around, I do not know if you want to know the
reason for that but you can blame the Europeans for some of it.
They all have white or whitish flowers, The 'Index of Garden Plants' is just
wrong, You cannot always believe every thing you read.
It's a lot of work putting together a descriptive list of plants and mistakes
are bound to happen.
