Red Lane Gardens 2010
H. ‘Sherry’s Last Bad Boyfriend’ (Oakes, N. 2010) ........ $35.00
(North Wind Dancer X Mighty Highty Tighty)
35”x 7”, Dormant, Diploid, Midseason.
The star shaped blooms are deep fuschia with a slightly darker eye. A green heart extends into a yellow throat with a hint of peach as it meets the eye and extends along the sides of the white midrib. While the bud count is only 14, it’s being introduced because it produces a large ratio of scapes to fans, so the bloom season is 3-4 weeks. Some fans send up 2 scapes.
As for the name... we’re not sure if Sherry has sworn off bad boyfriends or if it’s a tribute to the most recent one.
Only Sherry knows for sure and she ain’t sayin’!

Only one for this year. The rest were lined out too late to get good images and accurate measurements, so they'll wait until 2011.
