Lights on Dudie Drive July 8
Here are 5 near-whites blooming today in Philadelphia; take your pick or do like me and grow them all! This first is an oldie, Nanuq (1986).
Hannah Murphy is newer (Jim Murphy 2003) and is maybe a bit less white, but has diamond dusting.
Joan Senior (Durio 77) isn't the whitest either, but may be the most grown because it just looks good.
Arctic Snow (Stamile 85) has a little yellow in it, but probably so does arctic snow after the huskies pass by.

My favorite near-white is Winter in
Eden (Petit 96) 6" with lots of diamond dusting.
