Big Edges

Our northern hardy plants are showing some huge edges.  Blown Away has a huge edge and is passing it on to it’s seedlings.  Another plant that was used little but shows excellent results is Chang Dynasty.  This Floyd Cove evergreen was only used one season but we are getting some great seedlings from it.  The following seedlings are from the 2011 seedling crop. 

Seedling 122-8 – Blown Away x Orange Blossom Trail – We love the burnt orange color on seedling 122-8.  The flower has a watermark and matching edge that makes this a classy flower. 

Seedling 122-10 – Blown Away x Spirit of Hope – Seedling 122-10 is out of our new 2013 introduction Spirit of Hope.  The bright colored edge is highly visible in the garden.

Seedling 144-2 is Chang Dynasty x Natalie Grace – Another brightly colored flower with a huge edge.  Natalie Grace helps this flower open well.

Seedling 144-4 – Chang Dynasty x Yellow Rain Coat – This flower is all about the edge with the edge 1.25″ wide.  The flower is dormant and opens well.  We are amazed at how far ruffled edges have come and our program takes a back seat to no one when we see flowers like this.  And it is dormant!
