*MAN OF THE HOUR (Selman)
2006 [(CREATIVE EDGE x LADY DANCER)
X MYSTERY MAN] 26" M SEV 6" TET
Definitely different, MAN OF
THE HOUR has uniquely colored blooms that always get noticed in the garden.
Blooms are a peachy-orange-mauve blend with a rosy-purple eye above an
orange throat. There are three distinct colors in the ruffled edge starting
with raspberry-pink turning to rosy-purple and finished with an outer band
of gold. As the bloom season progresses, the edge can be much more elaborate
than sown in the image. Scapes are stocky with three to four-way branching
and 20 to 24 buds. MAN OF THE HOUR has produced many wild and wonderful
kids with triple edges, unusual color combinations and monstrous scapes.
Fertile both ways. Very limited.
