SO HAPPY (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Early 33” (84cm)
Our fascination continues with the lined pattern. Standards are white. Falls are a white ground with lavender wash and deep lavender veins that extend from the base of the standards to the wide white border. Brilliant tangerine beards and gold touched hafts complete the look. Strong growth with nice stems and buds on vigorous, floriferous plants.

THUNDERING APPLAUSE (T. Johnson ’20)
TB Early 36” (91.5cm)
Coming out of my lined pattern breeding, THUNDERING APPLAUSE pushes the pattern a step further. We are finally getting wide ruffled and even slightly laced form. Creamy white standards are infused peach pink. Falls have a light lemon base that is overlaid with violet lines radiating from the heart of the flower and becoming more of a wash near the edge. Then the whole pattern is framed by a nice lemon-yellow band. Tangerine beards help to compliment the pattern. Super strong growth on floriferous clumps.

WILD STREAK (P. Black ‘20)

‘Wild Streak’ is notable for its color saturation. Buff peach standards have rather large random irregular mid lilac segments.

‘Winter’s Smile’ is big and broad and smiling from ear to ear. Here’s another selection from the “beauty” cross. Plush warm white flowers have big looping ruffles. Standards have a greenish blush up midribs. Strongly flared falls are blushed palest gold over hafts. Warm white beards touched pale tan don’t detract from the classic sculp- tured form. Robust clean growth produces clumps filled with show stalks having 3 branches and 9-10 buds.

BE NOT AFRAID (Thomas Johnson ’22)
TB Early-Midseason 38” (96.5cm)
Sweet fragrance. Egg shell to light lavender standards with a narrow buff-gold ruffled rim. Milk glass white falls have a deep violet plicata band. There is a heavy concentration of violet across the hafts that forms a solid violet dart below burnt orange beards. Contrasting medium salmon style arms and a slight blush of salmon on the hafts of the falls completes the effect. A super strong grower with lovely show stems and triple bud sockets from top to bottom yields 12 or more total buds.
