GUEST,Julia L Plants named after folk performers (28) RE: Plants named after folk performers 28 Jul 13


I have a daylily called "May Colvin" ( as in the ballad) I know there are a number of hybrid flowers named for characters in ballads and legends; "Galahad" delphinium for instance.

Ther are a number of site which help one search for particular plant varieties. You could do a search of popular plants (like roses or daylilies) and put in your favorite folksingers.. let us know what you find!

best- Julia
