I do not know about that variety but I know that in France, Mignonette is very favored for using in pasteries and deserts. Could it be a new variety that Mignonette was used to cross? I am working on crossing Pineapple Crush alpine with Mignonette....wont know the outcome for awhile yet.

I don't think that variety has been imported. The Gariguette is being replaced by Mara des Bois by many growers in France. Mara des Bois is available from a few sources in the US and is similar: small and flavorful.

I've got some Mara des Bois that are just about to start bearing (purchased based on Scott's praise). I bought them from Wicked Wilds this spring. They were sold out last year, but they might still have some plants left. WW was cheaper than the only other source I could find (white flower farm), but 20 plants are $40 and they only ship fedex, which is another $20 (although their packaging including a cooler and ice packs is impressive).

Here is a link that might be useful: Wicked Wilds

Wow, thank you so much for all the information! I will certainly try Mara des Bois as an alternative. I appreciate all the help!
