John's Description;
ROSE POM POM
(Benz) tet 26" M. Dor. (Grand Symphony X Tetra Frances Joiner)
Our initial top pick of all the beautiful doubles from the converted tetraploid form of award winning FRANCES JOINER, and still one of the best. I chose FRANCES JOINER due to its overall balance and total plant structure, but most importantly because of its perfect hose-in-hose form. Peony breeders refer to this type of doubling as "flower-in-flower" referring to the fact that the bloom is composed of more than one bloom versus the cabbage center which, though it can be equally beautiful, is caused by transformed stamens and extra tissue on existing petals. The fully double "flower-in-flower" form has long been known to produce the most consistent and uniform doubling and this is what I was after. ROSE POM POM is a 5" deep rose hose-in-hose style double, much like a rounder and more deeply colored version of parent FRANCES JOINER. ROSE POM POM is a remarkably consistent FULL double which has never bloomed single in the last 4 years. Plants are big and strong, with beautiful arching dark blue-green foliage and thick ramrod straight scapes that are beautifully branched but a wee bit too short, with 2-3 lateral branches and 22 or more buds. Vigorous and always perfect. Very fragrant; an easy parent both ways, and proving a great for full double tetraploids in all shades of rose and pink and even red. FALL ONLY $150.00
