Sweet Harmony in Bloom
Comments:
  • Posted by TheMainer (Maine - Zone 4b) on Nov 24, 2022 3:49 PM concerning plant:
    Sweet Harmony was a little slow to get started but does very well once it does. It needs staking because of the really long flower stems, large blossoms, and multiple side buds. Those extra-long stems make it a nice cut flower. The scent is sweet but not overly strong. I can't find much information about its background.
