From Aitken catalog, 2017: HEARTS AFIRE (TB) (Aitken '17) TB 30” (76.2 cm) ML. 3 branches, 7 buds. A compact plant with incredibly bright flowers. Finding this plant in the seedling field sets the hearts afire! Beautifully refined petals with exquisite form and pattern. Bright, smooth, rich orange self except for a rim of chocolate on the round flat falls. An intense deep orange beard further enhances this outstanding plant. This is a healthy plant with good growth. In spite of a pedigree which includes rebloomers, this plant has not rebloomed in the Pacific Northwest.
