Description
 
A very robust selection in one of our favorite genera, this is one we brought in from Japan some while back and at last have some to offer.  Wider and longer leaves than most of our other forms we grow, this by necessity  makes larger evergreen rosettes.  In early spring the central floral resting bud starts to awaken and March sees the elongation of the flowering stem to 10" and the appearance of a full head of  creamy flowers aging to a clear white.  This Snow White truly would make an insecure and wicked queen jealous!
