Info | Blue-green, shiny, cupped, wavy. Medium large, wide bluish green leaves become shiny green by midsummer. Good substance, large fragrant near white flowers. One that's destined to hold it's own--the wide leaves start out a bluish green and by the end of the season are a shiny green with a haze (bloom) over them. This plant has great substance, a nice growing habit and large FRAGRANT near-white flowers late in the season. |
