Has anybody out there grown FOREIGN KNIGHT (Barry Blyth, R. 1996). Sdlg.
B162-2. TB, 38" (97 cm), EM.  " S. oyster, midrib mushroom; F. reddish
rose, faint oyster wire edge; beards bright red tangerine; slight
fragrance. Crimson Snow X Electrique. Tempo Two 1996/97."?

What kind of branching and bud count does it have?

It died here, very weak grower, but managed to produce a few tiny blooms
on a one foot tall stalk with good pollen right before it croaked.  I
have a lot of super vigorous seedlings from it on PINK FORMAL.  The
colors on FK were really pretty, and falls were nice and fat.

Just wondering what to expect.
