| note | this variety received its name after a French governor in Canada in 18 century, and has been in cultivation in France for more than 150 years. It is very popular in Britain, too, where it is considered fully hardy. And Italy, namely Tuscany, would most definitely lose its most spectacular symbol without it. It blooms beautifully with large, 20 cm or more across, creamy white to pure white flowers in June and July while it has flower buds |
