N. ‘Golden Echo’<br />

We have such<br />

a good time<br />

hybridizing. On<br />

balmy days<br />

when the bees<br />

are working,<br />

we like to try to<br />

be in the fields<br />

‘spreading<br />

pollen’ as well.<br />

With several<br />

flowers per<br />

strong stem,<br />

sweet fragrance<br />

and longevity<br />

in bloom, N.<br />

‘Golden Echo’<br />

is one of the<br />

best of the best!<br />

We are thrilled<br />

and honored to<br />

be a small part<br />

of its creation.<br />

�Hillstar – sister<br />

seedling of N. ‘Pipit’<br />

with lemon yellow petals<br />

and a halo at the<br />

base; longer and<br />

broader white cup<br />

with buff shading and<br />

a white edge; 2–3 flowers<br />

per stem; terrific in<br />

the garden and in<br />

spring; (12/14cm).<br />
