From AIS Bulletin #261 April 1986 Introducing DRIFTING CONFETTI-TB, 34", M. This deep wine fancy plicata on cream to white ground was not registered as a rebloomer. During the favorable reblooming conditions of 1985, every mature rhizome rebloomed, thus depleting the stock and leaving only small, immature plants. It had never done this before. Drifting Confetti is not for sale but is being offered as a companion plant to White Reprise. It was well received at Rancho de la Flor de Lis in New Mexico. Spiked Punch X sib. Walter Moores. |
