Alice is one of my favourites.
As a full double she is sadly sterile so cuttings only.She is a relatively slow grower so it takes a while to populate a border.

It's a very old variety - goes back to the late 1800's. As you may have sussed by now I like old and rare varieties of most plants. the Victorians hybridised many magnificent flowers and sadly many too many have been lost. This includes vegetables too!

Those flowers are beautiful! Thank you for sharing them. Don't suppose we could find them in the states.
