Sweet creamy near white, tiny ruffles, soft rosy red eye, and a yellow to green throat give a very attractive show. Here, ‘Mommy Says’ gets taller on rebloom, and has been known to rebloom twice! Despite its relative reticence to bloom well after division, I had to present it to the world. Visitors are invariably attracted to it, and for good reason. In my garden ‘Mommy Says’ sets occasional bee pods, as well as playing well with others (other garden companions).
