From Joe Pye Weed catalog, 2010: FIONA - SIBERIAN. Schafer/Sacks (Seedling No. S01-37-10), 23", E-L. Named for our darling new grand-niece. Fiona is a bright orchid-pink bitone, lighter standards and darker falls with gleaming white styles. Nice form with small ruffles. Possibly a repeat bloomer for some, it gives us an extra long continuous bloom. Up to five buds per stalk held just above the foliage. Sib to Gentle Lass X (Strawberry Social x ((Pleasures of May sib x Pleasures of May) x sib to Sarah Tiffney)). $35.00
