Washington State's Mount Olympus impresses not by its height, but by its complexity of glacier-clad peaks and ridges. In a similar way, H. 'Mount Olympus' impresses not by the size of its flowers, but by their sheer number present on an established plant, and by their flawless form and presentation. Well-branched scapes hold the blooms just above the foliage tips, making a compact package. Flowers have always been open fully at 6 a.m., even in cooler weather. I have never been able to set fertile pods on it, but its pollen is quite effective.--- $20.00 |
