From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2007: SUNSET SILHOUETTE - TB, 36" (91 cm), Midseason-Late. Watch as the bright yellow sun descends toward the multi-hued colors of the sky in its journey to the horizon. What a colorful display it creates. Standards are bright, sunny yellow becoming yellow-gold silhouettes on fall hafts. Fall centers are lavender blending to softer rosy mauve tones. Each flower shimmers with diamond dusted elegance. Beards are fully saturated deep golden yellow. Smaller flowers are born in abundance on evenly spaced show stalks. SUNSET SILHOUETTE is a favorite because of its clean growth and great clump appeal.
