Thank you,
Mike,
76-36 A was
registered last year. Its name is Coral Dancer. I will grow it
and send it out for evaluation for probably two more years before I have it
introduced. The picture is of its first bloom in 2006. Every
bloom season since it has looked different. It is basically a coral
self with a lighter area around fiery red beards. It is heavily
ruffled, moderately laced, a good but not rampant grower with average stalks
and seven to eight buds. It gets rebloom genes from Barbara My Love,
but neither show any sign of reblooming here. Crossed with Cloud
Reflection, from 50 or more seedlings, four are sending up stalks which may
indicate rebloom. I remember from last year that most were a light
orange that I donʼt like.
6525-7636A A is a pastel with mauve pink standards (from Cast of Characters),
white falls with a pink-gold rim. People who like pastels like it very
much. Those who prefer brighter colors overlook it.

Parents of pink seedling
Francelle--- Your pink seedling 76-36 A 2 is a
beautiful flower. Are you planning to intro it?
It would be one that I would add to my collection. I have a pink seedling
that would cross
very well with it. Hope to see it in my garden in the
future. Mike in MO.
