From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2010: BLUE TRILL (Black ‘10) TB Early-Late 39” (99cm). Over the whisper of a soft breeze comes a sprightly trill, a Blue Trill. Medium blue standards and styles give way to paler blue-white falls. The high note is echoed by darker, plush blue beards. Three well-spaced branches and spur produce 10-11 beautifully formed flowers. Clean growth and purple based foliage assure the music will play on into the summer. Blue Trill crossed to a sibling gave about 75 percent purple based foliage seedlings that all show robust growth. It should be a good parent for those working for whites with blue beards. Maybe there will be a step forward in the sib cross that is to bloom this spring. Sdlg.!N193B: (Quite the Reverse x All Silent) X Mythology. $50.00. |
