Description:

This UF is SO gorgeous, I could just cry!!!

I totally fell in love with the beauty of polychrome flowers when "Work it Girl" (award winner) popped up years ago... the mood this class of flowers can display by changing and highlighting their different colors during the course of the day is SO amazing (and kinda cool to have a "new view" of it every time you pass during the day)! I really had no idea how I could ever "improve" the fabulous "Work it Girl"... but then realized... with form!

Blending together the two parents I chose here was a truly great decision (if I say so myself)... both of which can clearly be seen in their progeny here. Registered at 7.5", but don't be surprised to see a lot of 9 inchers during the season! In addition, be prepared to give this huge plant some room... it's NOT your "grandma's diploid" by ANY stretch or sense! MASSIVE foliage and scape strength on this incredibly fertile plant. The soft green throat spills out beautifully over the light orange, yellow, and raspberry colors that swirl around in this ever-changing (and wonderfully edged) flower... WHO wouldn't LOVE it?!?! TRUST ME... the sight of this beauty will simply smack ya to yer knees, and indeed, leave ya flat CHROMATOSE!!! I'd better stop now... or I'm gonna cry again... {{sniff, sniff}}
