As both a first year and second year plant, FEATURE ATTRACTION has been an
absolute star among my many recently introduced tb's. Not only does it have
distinctive and attractive color, lace, wide modern form and multi-budded
stalks, but it has increased at a very appropriate rate.
I think that here in Colorado, with our short growing season, bloomout may be
less a problem than in most parts of the country. Hager's MELBA HAMBLEN, for
instance, prone to bloomout in California increases quite nicely here.
