H. Cup of Grace (2009) A dynamic connection between Halcyon and some pollen from one of my earlier creations - one that wasn't good enough to make the grade we have since refer to it as "Spoons" ( a Breeders Choice / OP seedling ). Dark green deeply cupped rugose leaves arch toward the heavens. Mardy instantly came up with its' name H. 'Cup of Grace'. A good grower that is not bothered by insects/slugs.
