Description

'Mayflower' has a smaller stature than the species, growing to a height of 1.5 m in US trials, but retains the purple-violet panicles. However, all of the cultivars remain aggressive colonizers, capable of producing innumerable root suckers. [1]

Cultivation

Examples of all the cultivars were sent to the Longstock Park Nursery in the UK by the Bernheim Arboretum for assessment, but only 'Miss Vicie' survives (2012). [2] B. lindleyana and its cultivars are not fully hardy; USDA zones 79.[1]

gollark: I also like the staff of travelling.
gollark: It's just machines and conduits, but now with a few annoying gimmicks like grains of infinity.
gollark: EnderIO isn't very interesting in my IMO.
gollark: I don't really remember mine as looking different to reality at all, but I read that our impressions/memories of them might be assembled afterwards.
gollark: Your dreams look like that? Weird.
