Hi folks,

Time for some more show and tell. What have you got in your gardens that is streaked? Or maybe, what have you got in your gardens that WAS streaked and has stabilized?

Here are mine.

#1. Was SUPPOSED to be 'Liberty Bell'. It was stabilized by the time I got it and the dealer didn't realize it. (He'd gotten it at my request). Doesn't REALLY matter to me because it's a pretty margined plant that grows quickly and the stabilized form is called 'Bell Ringer'. The members of the handbell choir I direct gave me a gift certificate and I bought it to honour them. 'Bell Ringer' is quite appropriate.

#2. 'Charlotte's Web' - new last autumn and doing well, though a large eye of it had stabilized or reverted. I removed it and am growing it separately.

#3. 'Dorset Clown' - new this past spring.

#4. 'Ice Age Trail' - mine has SOME streaks, but nowhere near as many as I've seen on some plants.

#5. 'Lakeside Mom' is a real looker. 4th year, I think, in my garden.
