margaret hunt is just starting to open up, it will be a spectacular display within a few days.
why this clems is not more widely available i do not know.
if i indexed start up time, vigor, trouble (none) and floriferousness, and unique/pretty color of the bloom, it is probably the number one clem i have ever grown. no exaggeration.
it is about 5 ft tall, but doubling over. i may put in a larger structure for it next year, or coax it to the evergreens early in the year as i have done with others in that garden.
ine came form song sparrow i believe 5 years ago, but i noticed it is listed on ssv's site.
