From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2006: SUSPECT - AB, 23" (58 cm), Midseason. Rarely do aril-medians have such big and precisely defined aril spots and clear colors, but Suspect does. Domed standards are rich, medium blue-violet. Styles are mauve-red. Smooth mauve-rose falls have big one inch red-black aril spots surrounding ivory beards tipped brown. Strong growing plants produce many stalks with one branch and 3 buds. This is one of the prettiest aril-median types we've seen. Seedling TU289A: Hot Jazz X Onlooker. $25.00.
