Delphinium 'West End Blue'
The first new plant discovery at Kebra nursery was Delphinium ‘West End Blue’, which appeared as a mutant of D. ‘Atlantis’.
Being “one of the greatest Delphinium cuttings producers in the world”, Kebra was able to quickly produce large enough quantities of D. ‘West End Blue’ to have it launched as a new variety, so it was introduced to the market in 2000.
Campanula 'Purple Sensation'
The darkest Campanula yet, C. 'Purple Sensation' will be introduced in 2005.
