Comments
Very well received in marketplace. Blooms good size for most floral work – nice intermediate size of flower. Great eye-appeal. Cut a bit early for sales (cut too late & they fade quickly); Darker than ‘Evening Sun’ – almost black-red; Will grow this next season; Should have grown for fall production, wrong color for summer. – Bad timing; Reported as lasting 7 days in vase, great market value!; Similar to ‘Evening Sun’ & ‘Red Sun’; People either love it or hate it; doesn’t seem to be any middle ground.
