Dianthus 'La Bourboule'
« on: April 30, 2013, 11:13:23 PM »
Is this a selection of a species which comes true from seed or must it be propagated by cuttings? I had seed so labelled from last year's Seed Exchange and now have a few small plants. When I offer them for sale at the FTBG Plant sale can I label them as 'La Bourboule' or just as un-named seedlings?

Thak you

Hi Erle,
I've grown this and the white form from seed and they seem to breed "true".
For accuracy you could label them "ex La Bourboule".
