(Dan Trimmer, 1999). (Kisses Like Wine x Calico Jack) Tetraploid 28” 5 ½” Evergreen EM Re. This pale yellow with wine purple eye and edge is a garden favorite. Typical budcount is 35, on widely spaced branches held above vigorous plants. In the shade almost every bloom will set a pod. Segement width and ruffling probably comes through the converted Spalding, WINGS OF CHANCE which is the pollen parent of KISSES LIKE WINE. Steve is a wonderful parent for those working with yellows with eyes and edges. We already have so many wonderful lavender and cream flowers I’m glad to have finally found a yellow with so many attributes. |
