From Schreiner’s catalog, 2015: WINGMAN (Schreiner 2015) L. 40” $60.00. Ready for takeoff! A brisk, perfectly balanced blue-purple neglecta, with large flowers. See our photo at left. Slightly innovative is the sharp contrast in tone, between the standards and falls. The falls’ lavender border, however, mirrors the standards. It offers 7 flowers on a stem, and takes off late in the season. Fragrant. Seedling #YY30-B.
