PROFESSOR PLUM (David Selinger 12) 278 EM
[Sel 04-17] (Rembrandt X (Magic Night x Bambino))
Professor Plum did it in the show hall, on the court of honor. He used those fantastic deep purple blossoms, accented with light lavender-white anthers and stigma to his advantage- who could argue with slender stiff stems, a 24 inch flowerhead, 24 buds, opening 8 in formal fashion and 5-6 in color. Case solved.

Crisp florets of deep warm lavender, with a large snow white throat marking, heavily peppered with deep lavender- add some sparkling white darts on the lower petals and you have The King’s Kisses. This is a favorite, with wide open round florets, 22 buds on 27 inch heads, 7 open, 5 in color. Nice and straight, the strong slender stems are a pleasure to grow and arrange with.
