References:

From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2013: I'M ALL SHOOK UP (Black ‘13) TB Midseason-Late 30” (76cm). The name says it all. Just to see how shook up, look at the back cover. Once again the standards take center stage. The cross of (Meritage x Pharaoh’s Spirit) was the beginning of three distinct bands of color in the standards. I’m All Shook Up builds on that heritage. Color and pattern of falls is also quite unique. Two branches plus spur carry 9-10 buds. This is a must have for any collector’s garden. This is one you won’t need a label to be able to identify it. Sdlg. R113A: (Bold Encounter x Foreign Legion) X (Meritage x Pharaoh’s Spirit). See photo back cover. $50.00.
