The following pictures
are maiden bloom on my IB sdlg. 2-032V1. Parents are TANTRUM X BLATANT.
I will be anxious to see if it reblooms or not. BLATANT is somewhat
sporadic about its rebloom here so who knows.
Notes from the 2005
evaluation:
-17.5 inches
tall
-Mustard yellow standards
fading lighter to fine green midrib
-Red falls with black
sheen that fades lighter to edge
-Bright yellow throat and
haft marks extending 1/5 the length of the fall
-Beards dark gold to
yellow
-Delicate, sweet
fragrance
-Nice, moderate
ruffling
-Good substance….doesn’t
wither in the wind (and oh have we had wind this spring!)
-5
increases
The pictures are a little
more vivid than the colors are in person (falls aren’t as black as photo may
indicate). It may just be my monitor.
I would enjoy any
feedback anyone has. Thanks!
Botanically,
Kelly
