From Schreiner’s catalog, 2017: BLOOD MOON (Schreiner 2017) ML. 38" $60.00. This offspring of Dykes Medal Winner Drama Queen and Sing A Song, possesses fantastic garden value. Invigorating the expansive, creamy falls, is a red-burgundy plicaca border. Stylish standards are finished in a uniform burgundy, save for infusions of yellow at the base of the midribs. Wildly ruffled falls, as shown in our picture at left, contribute to the powerful luminescence of this dulcet plicata. Blood Moon's flowers unfurl atop 38" stems, each double branched, with 7 buds. Seedling A407-2. |
