Exuberantly colored falls have mahoganyto amber hafts becoming darker plum bands along outer edges. A big fuchsia grin spreads across the centers. Plush old gold beards complete this fun ensemble. Strong growth yields show stalks with 3 branches and spur and about 8-9 buds. While it hasn’t rebloomed in Salem, the genetics are there for it to do so in warmer climates. Sdlg.
