"Red Blend"    Pastel yellow blooms
Exhibition form
Hybridizer: The French House of Meilland hybridized Cherry Parfait.

Positives:  disease-resistant, good re-bloom during its first year, and Excellent exhibition mini.  1 1/2 inch blooms flowers.  Dense, dark green, foliage.  Leaves are a bit small for the size of bloom, but this helps highlight the bloom!  Bloom color tends toward more yellow in the spring, a bit toward white in the fall.

The plant grows to about 2 1/2 ft. in CT.  Generally one bloom per stem, and the stems are long.  The fragrance is slight.

Highly recommended- the color is creamy and texture is fine!
