I have found this one of the most difficult of the chysanthus/biflorus hybrids to maintain in Newfoundland, but this stock, which came from Potterton & Martin in 1979 has just survived. I think it is the genuine "Lady Killer" with very clear cut white bordered deep purple outer tepals. (I have also been supplied with forms like Todd's under this name, but I think they are different hybrids.)
