From Schreiner’s catalog, 2016: BEE MY HONEY (Schreiner 2016) ML. 39” $60.00. A first glance at this sharp red and yellow plicata can be akin to accidentally contacting a low voltage wire. Some of our most primal instincts are put on notice. See in our photo below how Bee My Honey’s yellow ground color gleams like a beacon. The ruby red sanding attractively overlays the falls, as well as predominating in the standards. Bee My Honey’s flaring falls forcefully ripple 39” high. This vividly colored plicata is guaranteed a second look. Seedling #VV736-1.
