| Info | A streaked sport of H. 'Love Pat'. This shy darling starts the season dressed in blue but reveals its sweet streaks as summer approaches. Shades of blue, green, and cream swirl across slightly rounded ovate leaves of excellent substance. The even corrugation of the foliage captures the light and reflects it back to the viewer. It is notably different from other streaked 'Love Pat' sports due to the fact that the streaking can take up to 8 weeks to fully develop in spring. So don't give up on it next spring and think it's reverted! |
