This 33 inch tall dormant, tetraploid has a big, yellow, 9 inch flower. It is a mid-season bloomer that reblooms in the late season. It’s not registered as such but it does have a red blush on the ends of the petals that blends inwards, and has a bright green throat. The cinnamon blush can be darker or more pale and sometimes the petals curl back so much that you may not notice it unless you view it from the side.

The name suits her; at 42 inches (107 cm) tall, she is also handsome with a bloom that is 5.25 inches (13 cm) and is a gorgeous blonde color with a yellow ruffled edge above a yellow to green throat. A dormant, tetraploid that blooms early and reblooms (more often with a longer season), but 23 buds on 5 branches she does have a long season. Also a strong plant that won’t tip over.

This is a “Wow Plant”. It’s got a huge 10 inch bright crimson red flower with a wide golden throat that turns green deep inside. It’s tall at 40 inches but won’t tip over even with a bud count of 25. He starts blooming in the early to mid-season but then reblooms. Classified as a cascading unusual form, it is a semi-evergreen, but seems to fine here in northern Wisc
onsin. Huge and spectacular! This one will have two fans instead of our normal 3 due to its size.

This sturdy, tall (32 inch) dormant, tetraploid is a good bloomer in the mid/late season. The 7 inch flowers are registered as orange but they are more of a golden orange with a star shaped rusty red/orange halo.

Royalty Surprise is a dormant tetraploid that blooms in the mid to late season. It does continue all the way to frost for me. The plant is 36 inches tall with 6 inch lightly ruffled blooms. The rich royal red flowers are edged with a wide cream border that sets it apart from the other reds, and it has a green throat.

Matthew Martin is described as brown over a gold throat. It has ruffled edges on a 5.5 inch flower. The plant is a dormant, tetraploid that is an early middle-season bloomer, that also has extended bloom. I have to say neither the description nor the pictures can show the beauty of this flower. I really think it is my favorite. It is a really rich color that can look different depending on the light. It shows hints of red, gold, copper and purple, and the darker band in the eyezone really makes the throat glow in the dark. The frosting on the cake is the copper diamond dusting that makes it shimmer.
