From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2012: (Black ‘12) PRINCESS GRACE TB Midseason-Very Late 32” (81cm). Princess Grace was very fond of beige to rosy beige colors. This lovely flower hopefully captures a bit of her beauty in a palette she would find attractive. Plant habit is top notch in every way, from strong vigorous growth to show stalks having 8-9 buds. Clumps transport one to a place of quiet, serene elegance. One of the last to finish blooming. Sdlg. N133A: Blushing Bashful sib X (Good Humor x Weekend Update). $50.00 |
