TENNYSON

(Dan Trimmer, 1999). Tet (Janet Gordon X Summer Blush) Dormant 4 !/2 EM Re 26 I’ve had limited success in trying to breed for complex eyes in the lavender and purple areas, but have had success with these types of eyes in red. TENNYSON is very fertile and produces an extremely high percentage of keepers. The red eye etch is dominant as is the very large yellow green throat. TENNYSON’S blooms are round, full and ruffled. Very dormant, I’m surprised that TENNYSON performs equally well north and south, increasing rapidly even when abused by a hybridizer setting too many pods. Bud count is 25, foliage is low and broad. From a distance the overall effect of TENNYSON is a clean green pink.
