Nursery contributed plant descriptions

It is an outstanding texensis hybrid with beautiful two-tone pink flowers blooming steadily and freely for most of the summer months. The upturned tulip-shaped flowers are about 3 inches across at maturity and would make a fine complement to a climbing rose. Jackman, England, 1890.
