Pasadena

Pasadena.  Chow, Bernard.  Unregistered garden named seedling (Chow #I158).   Advanced generation lutea hybrid.  Hybridized by Bernard Chow of Melbourne, Australia, and based on plant material from Bill Seidl.  Pasadena has soft semi-double coral-pink flowers.  The flowers sport bright pink sheaths and darker stamens to contrast the pastel petal colors.   Plants grow to a height of approximately 3.5 feet in Wisconsin and 4 feet in width.  Stem hardiness is poor, but plants quickly replace lost stems to provide good bloom each spring.  Low seed and pollen fertility. Ships in late September to mid-October.  AGE: Field-grown, 3+ year old graft or division from larger plants – our choice of available plant material upon harvest.
