From Rainbow Hybridizing Gardens catalog 1964: CRIMSON REPEATER (Austin '64) EM-44". Probably produces the tallest and heaviest well-branched stalks of any rebloomer, averaging 44", and occasionally reaching 53" in the fall. A striking crimson bitone, with bright flaring falls and lighter standards. Hardly surpassed in vigor of any Re-Bloomer; the size of the clump and the amount of bloom, both spring and fall, will amaze you. Very fertile both ways. Firebright X Autumn Delight Sdlg. # 1103. Regularly $20.00; on $25 order $14.95.
