TOWER POWER (Davisson-J 2009)

TOWER POWER is something totally different for hybridizers and gardeners alike. It's a huge 8" showy cream peach, yellow, and pink polychrome open form that is displayed on tall 42" scapes with wide 5- to 6-way branching and 29 buds. Strongly recurrent, it starts blooming early midseason and continues through late season. Exceptional plant habit comes from its pollen parent, AL'S PEACH TOWER, a line bred descendant of TET FRANCIS FAY. The pod parent is Webster's COSMIC RAY. Blooms always open without crowding and are extremely fragrant blooming right under your nose where you can smell them. Exceptional plant habit carries through to seedlings...it can improve the height and branching on round forms or improve the strength of scapes on more spidery forms equally well. The color is a clarifier. Difficult but not impossible as a pod parent; easy as a pollen parent. Semi-evergreen.
