From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2009: STAR IN THE NIGHT (Black 09) IB Midseason-Late 25” (63cm). What a breathtaking sight a clump of Star in the Night makes! Darkness descends as dark blue purple standards turn to inky blue black falls. White beards laid over violet bases shine brightly. Flowers are gently ruffled so as not to diminish the simple beauty of Star in the Night. Muted white rays amplify that brightness. Clean, healthy plants support bountiful stalks with 2 branches and 6-7 buds. Spectacular garden show. Sdlg. O247C: Ocean Depths X Wish Upon a Star. $22.50.
