References:

From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2015: LOVE SOMEBODY (T.Johnson ‘15) TB Midseason 36” (91cm). Opulent buttery peach pink domed standards transition to very wide and round falls of the same color becoming ivory around tangerine beards. With so many weak and open standards these days, this classic tight form is worthy of note. Strong show stalks assure a beautiful presentation in a clump. It would have been introduced earlier, but most of the stock was accidentally destroyed a couple years ago. We’re glad to be able to share it with you now. Sdlg. TX25AA: Kind Word X (Faberge x Lotus Land). $55.00.
