Info | Gerry Bennett discovered this a few years ago growing in a very old clump of 'Honeybells'. It is fragrant and blooms in August. 'Second Coming' has the most pronounced "white-vein look" ever seen - far more than other plants like 'Mito-no-Hana'. Growth is quite a bit slower than the rambunctious 'Honeybells', but it has steadily increased every year. The white areas of the leaves green up somewhat as the season progresses. A fragrant sport of 'Honey Bells' and tested virus free, totally clean. |
