Description:
This is by far my most consistent and eye appealing doubel picotee to date. I registered it at
5.75 inches but many flowers exceed 6.00 inches for me. I love the saturated color contrast of the
cream petals and the dark burgandy eye and edge. The yellow-green throat finishes off the flower.
Although I feel doubling is usually connected somewhat to the number of hours of daylight and the
number of hours of warmer temperatures, this flower doubles very well both in my garden and potted in
my greenhouse. I will usually get 4 or 5 branches on Topguns Anita Causey and it will re-bloom
for me quite well. I registered this flower as semi-evergreen because it leaves a small amount of
green foliage on top of the ground over the winter here. I can't say how it will perform further
south than Oklahoma City, it is dormant here because it emerges with asparagus new shoots in the Spring.
If you want a truely dramatic double that you will enjoy both as a garden flower and a show flower try
