From Glen Road Catalog 1925: "EMBER (Sturt. 1924) It proved this last season even more outstanding than we had hoped. It is an ample, rich-hued violet-red flower and the plant and branching are about perfect; 40 in. 10.00"
From Treholme Gardens catalog 1931: EMBER (Sturtevant 1924) E.85, G.87, M. S. 40". A rich violet-purple, almost a self, the falls being only a shade darker; bright orange beard. Redder in effect than Rajput and Mme. Cheri which it resembles. A vigorous, free-flowering variety, on strong, branched stalks that always attracts attention.
