PURELY PLATINUM
(Benz) tet24" M. Dor. (Kingdom of Heaven X Tetra Mary Jane Carpenter)
PURELY PLATINUM is possibly my very favorite of all the beautiful seedlings from Tetra MARY JANE CARPENTER. This magnificent 6" bloom exceeds all my expectations when making this cross. Reminds me of a glistening piece of “mother-of-pearl” jewelry and is further embellished by intricate14K gold teeth and braids and a huge vivid lime green throat. PURELY PLATINUM loves hot sun and at the end of a 90° day, the entire bloom shimmers with a pearlescent pink glow, the throat is still brilliant lime green. And as nights grow warmer a bright gold fringy filigree edge begins to appear. Plants are far superior to either parent and have huge arching blue-green leaves, with straight strong 3-way branched scapes and a total of 25 buds. Always flat open with substance that laughs at sun, wind, and rain. The only other pastel I grow with substance this heavy is its half sib GOING PLATINUM. The single most admired selection of all our kids from MARY JANE CARPENTER. Fertile both ways, but pods are difficult in full sun. SOLD OUT
