From AIS Bulletin #293 April 1994 Introducing GINA THE GYPSY (Pinegar) TB, 30", EM-M. Named for our beautiful, exotic granddaughter. The first time it bloomed, I knew this was Gina's. Beautiful in an odd but enticing way. Greenish yellow S. and styles narrowly edged white. F. have velvety deep purple centers, blending to lighter blue-purple with narrow brownish edges. Brownish red hafts and deep yellow beards complete the look. Nice branching and stalks, 5-8 buds. Pod sterile, low pollen fertility. Tied for 14th place from 150 first-year plants in '93 at Loomis Trial Gardens. Twist of Fate X Rowdy. $25.00.
