From AIS Bulletin #225 Spring 1977 Introducing VALLEY FALLS (Marsh '77). TB, 36", M. Sdlg. 70-130. (Rudolph 63-61 X a Lerton Hooker bitone blue). These medium size flowers are pale blue with a deeper shade of purple inside. The closed standards are ruffled as are the falls, which flare almost horizontally and have great substance. The lowbranched stalks carry nine flowers and never need staking. The clean foliage is blue-green. It is a good increaser and grower, and is fertile both ways. HC 1976. $25.00. Marsh Gardens. |
