EASY STREET (Tompkins '66) E.L. 36 in. (((Full Circle x ((New Hope x Dark Halo) x Full Circle))) x Rococo. A real eyecatcher, this new plicata is such a spectacular showoff that just to own it is sure to make you feel as if you were living on Easy Street. It is a glistening snowy white with beautifully stitched border of midnight blue around both the standards and the falls. The flowers are very large and broad with heavy substance and have such a heavy ruffling that the ruffles appear to be re-ruffled. A real good grower producing many rhizomes and stalks per plant. Well branched with lots of buds and a long season of bloom. Picture on inside cover. No. 63-25C. Net 25.00. [Fleur De Lis Gardens, Canby, Oregon, Catalog, 1966].
