From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2007: SOME LIKE IT HOT - TB, 32" (81 cm), Midseason-Late. If you like hot, sizzling, vivid colors, then SOME LIKE IT HOT is for you. It positively glows. Even with its shorter stature, it will still attract a long line of admirers. Standards are dark, rich apricot heavily infused rose up their midribs. Strongly flared falls are velvety black-cherry with precise 1/8 inch bands of iridescent red. Burnt orange beards complement both standards and falls. Heavily ruffled flowers are wide and blocky giving them a very masculine feeling. Sdlg. L104A: (Apricot Topping x Romantic Evening) X Sopra il Vulcano. Photo page 3. $50.00.
