  • TB 'Superstition' bloomed at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, zone 4b, approximately June 2-16, in 2017. Although I didn't notice any purple based foliage at the base of the leaves, 'Superstition' does have purple coloring on its spathes. The beards of 'Superstition' were tipped orange in the throat. -- HollyJohnson2017 -04-01 - 02 Oct 2017
