Some thoughts on these crosses:
Manfreda virginica conveys winter hardiness to the F1 crosses, but
the flower form strongly resembles the Manfreda (with the color
from the Polianthes parents). I am not especially enamored with
this but hope some advanced crosses improve upon it. The hybrids
though are vigorous and clump up nicely with age.

How tall are these? They look lovely!
