From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2015: BORN THIS WAY (T.Johnson ‘15) TB Midseason-Late 36” (91cm) Big, round and buxom. She was ‘Born this Way’. Frothy, exuberantly ruffled fuchsia rose falls are widely banded near white with an interesting veined transition between central color and banding. Strong well-branched stalks carry these beauties in regal fashion. Easy increaser. Unfortunately the cross tag was lost. Sdlg. TD181C: Unknown - lost tag. $60.00.
