-- BobPries - 2011-03-07 *'Opposites' was planted in late summer, produced 5 fans in spring of 2015 with 3 bloom stalks, one with 5 blooms, one with 2 and one with 4 - total of 11, impressive with my soil conditions. Pictures are very representative of mine, beard very gold against white markings, falls are deep blue and areas of almost blue-black. The very nice thing to see is the gold thread on edges of the standards and on the style-arms. -- LindaVacchiery - 2015-06-30
