    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This fiery jewel won major awards in 1950, 1968, 1977, 1985, and the RHS AGM one of gardening's highest accolades in 1993. With a broad, ruffled cup dipped in incandescent orange, it gives the spring garden a joyful jolt of intensity. It's named for the historic "red" cattle of Devonshire, and we get a kick out of that, too. 2 Y-O, 24-26", zones 5-7S(9WC)
