Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Rosmarinus officinalis (Albiflorus Group) 'Nancy Howard'. This clone is tentatively identified as 'Nancy Howard', which was once designated as "heavy leaf - white flowering" and 'Alba Heavy Leaf' to distinguish it from other clones. Like that clone, this is regarded by the nursery as a tall, broad-leaved, thick-stemmed clone. Since the descriptions match, it appears very likely to be 'Nancy Howard'. -SBL
