Hybrids
Here’s an alphabetical listing of the different hybrids I grow … well, alphabetical after the first slightly out of order listing for reasons explained below. Rather than give a lengthy description of each hybrid, I’ll make let you know the typical diameter of each type of flower shown, make a few additional comments about selected plants, and then let images of each plant type do the remainder of the talking. BTW … you can jump to an image of interest by clicking it.
