Description

Collected by Lynn Lowrey, an east Texas pioneer plantsman. He chose this clone for its profuse and frequent flower displays. It grows slowly to 5' tall and wide with dense mounded form. Its rich green foliage is a wonderful background for the lavender flowers. Not as dependent as others on humidity for flowering. Called Lynn's Everblooming in Texas

Water Saving Tip:

Use multiple cycles of irrigation on watering days. Most sprinklers deliver water faster than soils can absorb it.

By breaking up the watering time into smaller segments, runoff can be greatly reduced.
