I think they are both Cream de Menthe I know the second one is. It is a large 6 year old plant and has set its first buds. The blooms on this plant are about 12" across. The second and third are unknown I have had them for at least 20 years bought them as cuttings from the Estate sale of a woman who worked at Cheekwood Gardens here in Nashville. The blooms are about 8" across The third is Marseillaise A great bloomer, the color is not to be believed. stripes of Orange, dark pink and fuchsia with a lime center. Last is a Ric rac . This has been a GREAT bloomer until last year when I let them get sunburned. I only got this one bloom on about 5 plants this year. I usually get dozens of blooms. Any idea on the ID for the pink? Here is a picture of one of the Ric racs on a better year |
