From The Court Of Iris catalog, 1955: MOLASSES (White-Lothrop '44) M 33' ((Theme X Sacramento) X (Pink Jadu X Susiana) x (Dauntless X Mirasol) X (hauransis). The quite involved pedigree reveals two oncocyclus species in the makeup of this quite red Onco-bred - susiana and hauranensis. The soft bronze-red standards are closed over velvety flaring falls of a rich dark scarlet. The pollen is plentiful generally and it will set seed. $2.00. |
