Az Ap and others

Post by Garden_of_Mu »

Az Ap - Ensminger, 1980, SDB, A cute little blue with deeper flecks. Blooms for a very long time. I read the other day that it is named after a TB called Azure Apogee. The creator thought this looked like an abbreviated version of that variety and hence, Az Ap.
