From Bay View Gardens catalog, 2008: PIANOFORTE, 34 inches, ML. $50.00. Here is a different approach to red: more from the rosy red side. The flaring falls are maroon crimson overlaid velvety black with slight white markings at the red beards. The tightly held standards are a bit lighter than the falls with a unique crystal hairline edge. Stipple ruffling with great buds and branching. No. U02-6F, unknown but from planned crosses. |
