I agree with Carol with a caveat for colder zones...it takes a while to
settle in and landscapers usually want a "plant in Aug., bloom in
Spring reliable plant". HIGH STANDARDS took three years to have
significant bloom here as opposed to CAESAR'S BROTHER who went in as a
little division and went into in shock when the sunny Spring hit and
bloomed in overdrive.
>Esther C.D.M. is about the best white. The Gull's Wing which grows like
Esther, of course, would also be good.
For my money, Esther is a gem but KING OF KINGS (which I have never grown)
looks gorgeous in other people's gardens when it is planted as a specimen
plant and allowed to shine.
