Beverly Sills Iris & Lily Pons waterlily
« on: April 20, 2008, 12:29:03 PM »
Looks like I need to start a "Famous Musical" Garden now that I found Beverly Sills to go with my Lily Pons.  I'll have to go back to the nursery to get "Elvis Lives" hostas  :D

Anyone know of any other plants named after famous singers?

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)

When I lived in NJ (where I could grow bearded Iris) I used to grow 'Berverly Sills'.  Such a pretty Iris.  Yours looks wonderful!

I think there is a Rose named after Dolly Parton.
