Golden-orange ground plicata, falls with a strong 1/2" border of raspberry, widening across the hafts. Not only does he dress wildly, he also sports a neatly trimmed carrot red beard. Not a cheap thri11, but definitely an experience you'11 remember! Ruffled flowers, well-branched stalks. Best seedling in show, Region 14 Spring Meeting, 1982. #77-lllG 35.00. |
