(Boston Symphony * yezoensis) * Ice Trumpets
This lovely extra early cream is likely a future introduction. This year it opened the first of June, long before Stella De Oro. The scapes have 5 small branches with up to 30 buds: these are a bit crowded, and sometimes two open next to each other. It should have a LONG blooming season, without rebloom. The flowers furl well when they close, so that no grooming is necessary unless you're compulsive. Compared to the parent Ice Trumpets, the flowers look larger and fuller, the budcount is higher, the color is not as white, the throat is not as green and the scape branching isn't as good. But it is at least 3 weeks earlier and there's nothing like it in the extra early season.

Love it, Mike! The specie grandparent is really influencing the bud count and branching and probably overall vigor too! Has my vote to be sure!
