NEW  for 2008 - (Pictures)

Camano Dreaming  BB FD Lavender (some white at base of petal)  Vigorous  and fairly tall growing for us.  Might go to 6 feet for some.  5.5 to 6 inches in diameter.  $9.00

 

Camano X-Man  Min FD Red.  Very little fading.  Good form, but a very tough class for showing.  Should be a great cut flower and garden decoration variety.  I have no idea why I named it this.  3 to 4 feet.  $10.00

 

Vista Char  B laciniated light blend of pink and yellow.  From Jean Heeringa this beauty does better for us in full sun than shade.  About 3-4 feet in full sun.  Limited stock.  $15.00

 

Lakeview Hannah  B SC Pink.  Great pink color.  Full bodied.  Originator Bernie Wilson had some great exhibits of this.  Needs to be well tied up to keep growing upright.  4 to 5 feet.  $10.00

 

Vista Cody  Novelty Purple.  In the book since 2005, but the first time we have had it for sale.  Each petal is covered with barbs or hooks making it very unusual.  3 feet.  $12.00
