TIME CAPSULE (P. Black '22)
TB Midseason-Very Late 33” (84cm)
Slight sweet fragrance I’ve thought for a while it was time for an update of the older, ‘Sand and Sea’. My ideal goal is yellow standards and band on blue falls. ‘Time Capsule’ is a notable step toward that goal. Dark red-violet standards base blend to gray then brassy gold then to tan margins. Pale blue falls are narrowly banded light yellow. Distinctive mid blue beards are tipped from tan throats to white ends. Compact flowers are lightly ruffled and laced. Three branches present 7-8 flowers.

SHOW ME THE MONEY (P Black '22)
TB Midseason-Late 37” (94cm)
Pronounced spicy fragrance. And make it in blazingly bright gold. Intensely saturated, slightly bi-toned yellow-gold blooms have a dramatic charisma you won’t soon forget. Orange beards insist you come have a closer look. You’ll love these large, heavily substanced, classically formed blooms with strongly flared falls. Show stalks have 3 branches and 8-9 buds. ‘Nostalgic Memory’ has been an excellent parent for quality seedlings in a wide assortment of colors.

GOAT RODEO (Paul Black '22)
TB Midseason-Very Late 35” (89cm)
Slight sweet fragrance. Many early blooming plicatas were a disaster in colder climates because of their related early growth. ‘Goat Rodeo’ is another from my lines to produce later blooming, cold hardy and vigorous plicatas. Dark wine standards show a small central patch of white ground. Pale yellow ground falls are widely banded dark brownish wine with hafts more heavily sanded dark brown. Marigold beards are just the right pop of accent color. Strong growth produces stalks with 3 branches and 8-10 buds.

TB Early -Midseason 34” (89cmPronounced musky fragrance Ruffled flowers have warm white standards circled by wide grape juice purple plicata bands and darker styles.

TB Midseason-Late 35” (89cm)

YOU CAN JIVE (T. Johnson ’22)
TB Late 38” (97cm)
Sweet fragrance. Canary yellow standards. Falls are light lavender blue below the beard becoming lighter towards the edge. The hafts are touched yellow and there is a light yellow band that surrounds the fall. You Can Jive produces quality show stems with 10 or more buds, grows with strong vigor, and blooms profusely. In fact it puts on such a show that I simply have to stop to admire it each day when it is in flower. Uniqueness can be determined not only by color or pattern but garden performance and this one certainly does that.
