Antirrhinum 'Animation Velvet Red'

Good Qualities

Color was a luscious deep red (6); Burgundy leaves (2); Customers liked it; Strong flower – 1st snap to bloom; Bloomed over a month; Long sturdy stems; produced second flush in fall; Very productive, good recovery after hot summer.

Problems

None; Pinched them- wouldn’t do this again; Prefer central great stem and the auxillaries seem better then also; Bloomed at about 8 inches before croaking – apparently don’t like weeks of 90°F+ – this was not the summer to try winter types in the field in summer; Short branches formed just below main flower are a major fault, especially as weather got hot.

Comments

Coming across cultivars such as this, makes doing the trials very worthwhile – Thanks!; Excellent color, we pinched plants and treated like all snaps, a little short, but usable, did not like our extreme heat of summer (Zone 4) – but were very nice for late August, September and still going in October; General comments on trial (Zone 5, applied to all snaps varieties trialed): Trial grown outdoors on green plastic mulch (Solar mulch), trickle irrigation, 4 rows on a 9 x 9 inch spacing, one layer of Hortinova netting put up shortly after transplanting, season was hot most of the summer, but moderated into the fall, and did not frost until late October – during the summer heat, all varieties stopped producing flower heads, but the Group II varieties resumed production in mid-September, yielding about one third of their total production then.
