Snow Storm and Foxy lady

[Nievesgirl]

Charlie is there anything else I need to know ?

I just bought a 6" pot can't wait

My spring shipping includes some like it hot , silver dragon, snow storm, foxy lady , electric orange , and black cherry

I got Foxy lady  because of the parents  I had monsterrat before and it was a nice plant. Strobe looks pretty need.

Charlie do you have any pictures of strobe ?

Those are all very nice cultivars, Kerry. Good range of colors and nice upright plants. Snow Storm and Black Cherry are grafted versions.

Strobe was a Schlueter cv that he sent me wood of years ago saying it was good for hybridizing. It's been lost now but before it bit the dust I did some crosses with it and it also sported into a brown version of its purple flower. Below are photos of the 2 forms of Strobe together.

Snowstorm reminds me of 'white diamonds'

White Diamonds at its best is a cool little flower, very unique, but on average Snowstorm is bigger, bluer, and has a much better bush.

I got snow storm because I miss Lavender ice lol  I can not wait to get this one since you said it has a better bush and grows well

[Charlie]

Did you have Lavender Ice? It was cutey but did not grow much and would not be able to come back from any kind of setback very easily. The other parent of White Diamonds was Topanga if memory serves. I had one still alive last summer and hope its still there. It was also a mini but quite nice. Larry Johnson cv.

Yes i had Lavender Ice. It did pretty well for me slow growing but never no set backs with it. I think I posted pictures of it on here.
