This variety came first out of the seeds Kerry sent me because it propagated well and because the seedling plant bloomed a lot of multiple flowers at once. We are hoping that will continue to be the case with the rooted plants and that it will perform well in all conditions. These new varieties are cutting edge rather than tried and true so there are still some unknowns about them.

One of the surprises for me this year is how popular (based on orders) the simpler or smaller lavender/blue flowers like P's Purple, Ice Fairy, Sparkling Water, and Lilac Wine have been. I find them quite lovely but wasn't sure if other people would like them, too. All have really good strong bushes and make good houseplants which may be a contributing factor to how well they have sold.

Thanks everyone ! I can wait to get it and see how it does for me. I love the blooms shape a lot. It sounds like it has a better bush than Rocket's RG. I really like RRG so I hope to cross it some more.

Hi Kerry,

Beautiful bloom, it kind of reminds of this seedling of dupont that they discarded.
