The generous foliage is particularly handsome as it fully clothes each stem right up close to the bloom, so the foliage nicely frames a bouquet of multiple stems -- an effect that I call “angel wings.” The spectacular spring bloom is followed by lighter sporadic blooming the rest of the year.
Yolande d’ Aragon can get a little bit of mildew under certain conditions, but it is easily controlled with occasional spraying with Funginex.
