This cultivar of Gilliflower may be the same as Black Gilliflower, but our source attributes it to English origin.  We have'nt been able to compare it closely enough with Black Gilliflower to be sure.

Many heirloom varieties have some natural resistance to apple scab and other diseases, since they were often discovered and grown well before fruit growers started to use chemicals for disease control.  However, you may still want to be vigilant about fire blight, apple scab, and other fungal diseases and spray when the need arises.  Protect from insect damage like normal.
