From Schreiner’s catalog, 2017: EXPRESS YOURSELF (Schreiner 2017) ML. 32" $60.00. Our photo at right displays this bicolor's captivating colors. Express Yourself exhibits perfect form. Its gold standards are misted heliotrope, darkening on the perimeter, creating stunning contrasts. By comparison, the falls are rather subdued, albeit attractive. Light purple striations overlaid on the white ground, nicely complement the golden brown haft markings. Stippled edges enhance the exuberant ruffling of the falls. Great Smokey Dawn X Dakota Smoke. Seedling A 1408-2.
