Tetraploid 24” EM sev Re 6” (Flames Over Africa X Bo Red)*

Ruby red bitone with rounded wide ruffled petals, streaky lighter rounded red and cream sepals, and a soft yellow to green throat make a very pretty display. Blooms well, and then reblooms almost immediately. Prolific grower does not mind division, and the colors are fantastic. Does not always open well on cold mornings, and thrips love it, but it has too many fine traits to deny it the world. Benefits from afternoon light shade.
