I received this too, but unfortunately it just survived a bout with
rot only to have all the increase (very late) disappear to
grasshoppers. The rhizome is still firm, but I'm doubtful it will
recover now.
Here's a bit of info. Not registered. Circa 1957 by Loomis - a
WILLIAM MOHR derivative. Described as a big, unusual flower in
shades of yellow and tan. May be an OB- but was disenrolled as an
arilbred because the content could not be determined. Was marketed
in '57 despited not being registered. I don't have a height noted.
I hope your rhizome thrives. This is one I'd like a chance at
growing again.
