Scrambled Legs x Black Passion

SCRAMBLED LEGS (Michaels 2002) 26" EM DOR 7½" (10" wingspan) lavender-pink curled cascade Unusual Form with big chartreuse throat, four laterals and terminal "W" with 29 buds. It rebloomed the past 6 years in Western New York, even trying to put out a 3rd set of scapes in 2003, the year it was introduced. Could be an important parent for northern rebloom. Pod and pollen fertile, it passes high bud counts and is a vigorous increaser. Makes small fans. (DALLAS STAR X unidentified).

BLACK PASSION (Bill Reinke 2006) M 31" DOR 7½" curling spider with a ratio of 6.6:1. Impressively dark near black with creamy eye and creamy gold midribs over chartreuse throat (PHYLLIS CANTINI X KAREN'S CURLS).












Projected Results: Looking for wigglies in a wide range of colors, some of these might have ratios that put them into spiderhood; DOR.
