Answer 4

Hi Plato..I asked Mr marigold maker (!) about this a while ago and he went off on a tangent which is what we seemed to do all the time ..

I haven't seen it and I'm a fairly frequent visitor at the garden centres. Mind you it prob won't be till next year that it will filter through to mainstream centres. I know it usually takes even longer because of trials and stuff.

Shame he isn't around to ask x

Answer 5

Aww, I'm sure it was named after you. I bet you wrote a letter demanding that your name is to be used for a flower!
