Carpenter 2002, tet, Ev-M, re, 24", bud count 35+, fertile both ways, 4 ½" custard cream with a lipstick red eye. This is just one of the best performers in my garden - form is always consistent, opens flat and reblooms reliably. Substance is good and withstands sun and rain very well. Plant habit is great and it establishes quickly. The bloom is attractive but not breathtaking by any means. However, sometimes looks can fool you. My seedlings from it last year are amazing! This jewel sure can produce some fancy offspring with double edges. Photo taken in my garden 6/2005.
