Yes, SIgns!!! this happens when non -english learned sign painters paint the signs... I see this sometimes in our local events ...
This is Nymphea Rene Gerard .. a hardy water lily, introduced in 1914 by a lily hybridizer named Latour - Marliac who used to supply unfertile seed bearing plants to high end garden owners of Europe, including his supplies stocked the water lilly ponds in Monet's garden... which we all love the paintings of.... Who did Latour-marliac name this hybrid for is not known at this time, its definitely not the linguist of the same name who was not born until the year 1927 or 28... and this cultivar had already been offered in Latour - marliac's 1914 catalogue.... This man was a very secretive hybridizer.... good work all of you...
