From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2014: DARE ME (Black ‘14) TB Midseason-Late 36” (91cm). Most anyone would be happy to accept this dare. Ultra smooth, waxen oxblood standards are held firmly in place by prominent midribs. Wide dark oxblood falls are brought to life by a fine filagree of white veins spread over hafts and extending 1/3 way downward. Bright yellow gold beards add dangerous excitment to the dare. Show stalks have 3 branches and 9-10 buds. Strong growth. Great parent for neatly patterned plicatas. Sdlg. S114A: (Cailet x Magic Masquerade) X Master of Disguise. BONUS.
