References

From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2011: FRONTLINE (Black ‘11) TB Midseason-Very Late 40” (102 cm). Frontline takes the reverse blue amoena pattern and adds an exciting new dimension. Instead of solid blue standards, they blend from dark violet blue to icy white with centers heavily veined dark violet blue. They are a pleasing and different contrast to very wide and ruffled near white falls. Subdued tangerine to white beards don't draw the eye away from the dramatic standards' pattern. Strong show stalks have 3 branches plus spur and about seven buds. Growth is strong and healthy. Sdlg. O141C: Advanced Degree sib. $60.00.
