Yankee Doodle Blues
YANKEE
DOODLE BLUES (Stamile,G.) Dip. D20243A [(Little Sensation x
Arcadian Sprite) X Blue Flirt] 18” EMRe. SEv. 2 ¾”. 4-way
branching. 24 buds. Double 80%. This little lavender purple
beauty, as you can see, is from single breeding, so you can expect a
fair amount of singling on the first set of scapes. I can tell you that
during rebloom it is almost always fully double. Grace often remarked
that it is like having two flowers in one.
This is a beautiful flower with a lavender purple
base and a blue gray watermark eye pattern. It is quite showy and
always admired in the garden. Fertile both ways.
