From AIS Bulletin #297 April 1995 Introducing PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE (Niswonger '95) Sdlg. 25-92: Apricot Frosty X Sib to 26-85: ((Ambrosia Delight x 16-80: (Coral Beauty x Pink amoena sib to Marmalade Skies)). TB, 30" (76 cm), M. When this seedling first bloomed, I thought it was going to be Border Bearded but it later grew taller; so, it's somewhere between a BB and TB. It's an orange amoena with a tangerine orange beard that will stand out in any planting. The falls are semi-flared and ruffled and it sets seeds easily. Nicely branched with 7 buds. It should be a good parent for amoenas and unusual bicolors. The name was suggested by Gloria Fairhead of Annapolis, MD. $35.00. Cape Iris.
