References
From AIS Bulletin #261 April 1986 Introducing WHITE REPRISE-TB, 30", EM & RE in Texas. A ruffled and fluted white self with white beards tipped yellow, White Reprise sends up secondary stalks after spring bloom. Then, if growing well on established clumps, it can rebloom again in November. Ben Hager of Melrose Gardens was so impressed with White Reprise that he bought all of the stock he was guesting for the 1986 AIS Convention. It grew taller there than its registered height. Earl Roberts X Soft Halo. $25.00. Walter Moores. |
