Trimmer 1998. 32″ tall scapes. 8″-9″ ruby-red blooms with yellow-green throats. 30 buds, 3 branches. Mid-season bloomer. Dormant. Tetraploid. This is a beauty…but… caution! The dark color makes it very attractive to insects and the color makes an instant fabric dye if you happen to brush by a bloom that is finishing up and beginning to “melt”. Just the same when garden visitors see it we are sure they will ask “Where’d you get that?” One of the parents is Ruby Spider which we also grow and sell.
