Trial: Annual

Years Trialed: 2002

Good Qualities

Strong growing snapdragon (white with yellow throat) (not solid white); Truly – Ivory colored flowers, lustrous dark green foliage – Easy, vigorous plant; White, standard snap; Excellent length for field production, strong stems; Good strong stems with a full bud set – Long lasting cut and a nice clean white.

Problems

Too short to be very useful in mixed bouquets – Would be a good medium-sized bedding plant; My market for white flowers is not strong; Not as tall as ‘Orlando White’; No problems other than I only used one layer of netting approximately 10 inches up and they needed a lower layer to prevent the stems from bending down low – I believe I lost stem length due to this.

Comments

Same as ‘Rocket’ – No reason to switch from ‘Rocket’; I would recommend two layers of netting, with the first layer only 4 inches from soil.
