  • TB 'Tennison Ridge' bloomed at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, zone 4b, approximately May 25 - June 6, in 2017. Although I didn't notice any purple based foliage at the base of the leaves, 'Tennison Ridge' does have a pinkish-red coloring on its spathes. -- HollyJohnson2017 -04-01 - 02 Oct 2017
