Aunt Belle
This flower was named for my Great Aunt Annabelle.  She and Uncle
Bob never had any children of their own, so we were all like children
and grandchildren to them.  The story goes that when the children were
being raised, the kids had a hard time saying "Aunt Annabelle."  Just
too many syllables!  So she shortened it to just "Aunt Belle" to make it
easier for the kids.  
Her favorite colors for flowers were oranges and yellows.  I found this
particular seedling especially pretty, and I thought she would approve.  
She was my grandmother's sister (See
Sylvia Catherine).
