    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Superb multi-award winner (AM 1991, Morgan-Wood Medal 1993) that blooms like it means it. Tetraploid substance with flowers of deep wine-red and nicely ruffled with a gold blaze fronted by a white panorama on the falls. Sure, it's a little snooty and pretentious but can you blame it?
