Well, then you are one of the few who have grown both McCullar's & Fleener's. I grew Fleener's for only 2 years, and was impressed by it... but before I could increase its numbers, voles ate the entire row (this year, they ate one of my favorite lillies during the winter). The original source for Fleener's lost his as well, and both he & I (and Kaz) have been looking for the "real" Fleener's.

I hope that Mulberry Woods Nursery has the real one (currently listed as 'out of stock'), so that I & others could grow it... the variety seems to be desperately in need of greater preservation efforts.
