InfoStreaked breeder:****
Large, round, domed green leaf with yellow and cream streaks.
Very blue, very heavy-textured, very beautifully streaked.
Medium streaked breeder from Seaver.
A seldom offered unstable streaked breeding plant from Mildred Seaver. Green heart-shaped leaves streaked with white and cream yellow.
Another of Mildred's beautiful plants, this time in the form of 'Diane Gray Dalton'. Mildred has named a few of her introductions for dear friends of hers and this is one of those. Diane Gray Dalton is a plantswomen in the Boston suberbs and both she and her beautiful shade garden estate have been featured in garden magazines and on gaedening programs such as House and Garden Television and Home Matters. The beautiful streaking may take some upkeep to keep the solids out, but upkeep like that sure beats weeding! A very rare plant to see offered.
