Lemon Drop
This sweet piece of lemony eye-candy looks much like its parent, Gingerbread Man—loads of old-fashioned formed flowers, lots of bright green clean leaves, long-lasting color, good vigor and attractive habit. The clear lemon yellow blossoms come in showy clusters. Color intensifies in cooler climates.
