Difference: TbPortland (r12 vs. r11)

■(TB) 'Portland'

1938, Kleinsorge

'Portland' (Rudolph Kleinsorge, 1938) TB. Midseason Bloom. 40". Color Class-Y9M. (('Conquistador' x Cardinal') x 'Carfax') X 'Rameses'

From Carl Salbach's catalog for 1939: "Standards frosty gold, falls coral rose - very close to being a giant Mary Geddes. Blooms of good size and form. The main difference in coloring of the two is that the standards of Portland are slightly lighter gold and the falls are more of a self color, lacking the gold haft lining. Or, to describe Portland another way, one could say it is a highly colored Rameses, for it has bright colors, while Rameses is more on the pearly type. Showy, standing out clear across the garden - and tall enough to give it unusual garden value. Mid-season to late, 45 inches."
