References

From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2013: GIORGIO (Black ‘13) TB Midseason-Late 40” (102 cm). ‘Kiss of Passion’ has been used to help strengthen the standards of some of the current amoenas. In the case of Giorgio it worked very well. Standards are domed and strongly held in place. Tall strong show stalks have 3 branches and 8-9 buds. Growth is healthy and clean. You have to love those big orange red beards! Veining in the falls looks a bit like cascading fireworks. Sdlg. Q15A: Kiss of Passion X Gypsy Lord. $50.00.
