Every year I take notice of some top performers which really stand out. This
year Mary Lousie Michie was outstanding for clump effect and bloom display.
It is also perhaps one of the pinker of the lavender pinks I have seen. I
enjoyed the history Anna Mae Miller gave on this one. It is interesting
hearing about how some of these have come into existence. MLM appears to
have new or different blood to add to those breeding lines.
Another variety that has been great every year and I would have to rate as
the best white (near white) I grow is Creme Chantilly. Consistently produces
more blooms and longer bloom period than most other Siberians. Always triple
budded on terminal and branches have 2, sometimes 3 buds for the best
branching and bud count. As a bonous it is quite ruffled as well.
Honourable mention goes to Roaring Jelly, just love the color, and
Coronation Anthem.
Would like to here your top performers this last season, especially any
newer ones.
