Trial Started: 2005

Year of Trial: First (from 2005 report)

Good Qualities

Tall (2); Great filler (2); Mixed colors on one plant – lots of tiny flowers; Vigorous growth, not very susceptible to disease, many flowers; Frost portion of color is indistinct; Good color/customer appreciation high, sold very well, good for bouquets; Nice pink flower.

Problems

Did not harvest – the flowers were poorly developed; Petals missing- never formed properly, probably should not be planted in a tunnel during summer because the flowers placement on stem were elongated, not cut flower quality; Leaf spot; Lot of death; Day length sensitive; Short for my system/season; Difficult to harvest when most flowers looked good – did not perform well in the field, very few plants produced harvestable flowers, the good flowers were a nice pink but most flowers were discolored and useable.

Comments

Similar to ‘Serenade’, although it is a much larger plant; Customers and I loved it!; Try again under plastic.
