WILD LAND

$10.00 - $25.00

(Nels Anderson 2023)  565  M

[NA 1130] (unknown)

A wildly unique shade of medium purple-rose, with a red-rose throat marking. We grow hundreds of varieties and test lots of seedlings, but this color is totally unique. That was very evident when standing amongst a field of bloom and nothing was even close to this glowing color. 500 size, 6 inch blooms on 55 inch tall plants. It displays formal placement on long 30 inch heads, producing 28 buds, holding 9 open and 7 showing color. The florets hold up well, they are round, wide open, and have a medium substance. A wonderful addition to the 500 class, Wild Land is a fitting example, and a tribute to the work of the “late” Dr. Nels Anderson.

LAUGHING OUT LOUD AAS

(John Meyer 2023)   425 M

[JM 265-13] (Pink Lace x Sacia Lynn)

A lusciously joyous, ruffled medium orange with a large mysterious purple blotch and a deep rose midrib, fills the room with laughter.  Minnesota glad designers have been waiting for this beauty to reappear after getting a sampling of it at our State Glad Show in New Ulm, MN, a few years back. It takes a couple years to build up enough stock to enter it in the All America Select Trials and also have enough to introduce.

Congratulations! John Meyer!
