Anecdotal Notes
Diana
Excellent and dense 4" with a very pleasing tropical fragrance. A prolific bloomer with dense bloom heads and outstanding holding qualities. This medium tree is almost always covered with 4” light pink and white flowers. I asked Bud Guillot if this one had anything to do with him. He said something about those crazy Texans tagging his name on their varieties. He said it's just Pink Cloud.
