(Dan Trimmer, 2002). Tetraploid (Gillian x Sabine Baur) 25” EM Re Ev 5 ¼” This pale lavender bloom with the biggest, boldest black purple eye I have yet seen was selected by my wife, Jane, to carry her namesake. An equally bold dark edge surrounds the round full petals. Jane often has 4 lateral branches and up to 35 or 40 buds. Fertile both ways, and an excellent parent, I’m happy to add Jane is a superb grower and increaser. I have to thank both Jeff and Elizabeth Salter for providing all the parents in Jane’s background. I’m hoping to see red eyes and edges next year in the seedling patch since Gillian, the pod parent of Jane is directly out of Elizabeth Salter’s red eyed, Dragon’s Eye. |
