From AIS Bulletin #289 April 1993 Introducing TENNESSEE VOL (Niswonger '93) Sdlg. 71-89: Fresno Flash X 5-79: (Count Down x Marmalade Skies). TB, 33", M. A somewhat tailored brilliant orange of great carrying power. The beards are even more intense than the flower, but the flower has a certain glow that draws you to it. The name was suggested by Hilda Crick, from that great Volunteer State of Tennessee, who is quite a "volunteer" herself. It is fertile both ways and has a hardiness not often found in oranges. $35.00. Cape Iris. |
