This one came from a local nursery, OC. It was an end of season clearance item last year and it is huge this year! The name is Monte Negro and is really does coordinate beautifully with Hot Cocoa (which is done blooming now :lol: )

I'll get a few phots from today and post them when I can... DH took the card reader for the camera on a business trip so I can't get piccys off the camera right now :roll:

Thanks for looking everyone!
