Re: TB: good pinks - Magical Encounter

Chad, I planted Magical Encounter last year and I love the color.  I got several crosses from it.  It is fertile both ways.  Unfortunately it has only made two increases, and they look as though they might pineapple.  I hope not.  I won't know for sure until next spring.

  Subject: [iris-talk] TB: good pinks - Magical Encounter


        On the thread about good pinks. I am trying Magical Encounter this
  year after catching a chance glimpse of it in Joe Ghio's fields 2 years ago
  (we were "lost", while trying to visit Bill Maryott)  The Schreiner catalog
  description says it may throw an occasional summer bloom - though they do
  not use the term rebloom.  Anybody out there grow this one ?

        To date my best/favorite pinks are Valentines Day and Katie Pie.
  Have Happenstance and Pink Champagne but still too early to call. Best Pink
  rebloomer is Mystery Blush, but it is a very pale pink.... Winning Edge is a
  peach pink plicata with incredible flowers, but it's always missing a branch
  which is OK for the garden but not for show.
