Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This is a Thompson hybrid, and very appropriately named! This one has a very good yellow color, a bright maroon-red throat with spotting, and ruffled edges in trusses of up to 22! Sylvester would have an easy time finding this one in the garden. It is truly an eye catcher! (['Darigold' x 'Lackamus Spice'] x 'Golden Anniversary #2')
