Excellent bud count and branching on this super hardy plicata. There are a lot of people complaining about plicatas that are tender and rot easily. Complain no more. Not only is this plant hardy, it increases rapidly, and would appear to have a bad taste for iris borers. Standards are near solid royal-purple, and falls have a wide rim of royal-purple. With some doting and streaking inside white centre. Violet-purple beards. Being heavily used in plicata breeding to work towards hardy luminatas and glaciatas.96-X-48- parentage unknown.
