(Kovach, 2011) 5 1/2", 25", Mre, Sev Tetraploid. Northern bred. Yes it is a light yellow with gold edging and teeth showing up, not covered with teeth but making good progress. This outstanding northern bred double was selected by Sandy and Jack Wolfe in my seedling bed, the light yellow double that shows teeth that are not heat dependant. This wonderfull double stands almost as tall as it is wide, pollen and pod fertile, though, pods sometimes are a little had to set. wonderfull texture, rebloomed for me three times in a pot in Georgia. This one is really special. Never bloomed single. Be warned tho, that it is a slow multiplier.

Orange-red double with a large, ruffled, light gold, toothy edge with lots of large teeth. This introduction is one great parent! It basically was the parent that really got my toothy double program going. While the host plant is not that super it doesn't affect its offspring when brought to a stronger plant. What it always passes on is TEETH.
It usually keeps its 3-way branching in the offspring. A MUST plant for those hybridizers that are working on a toothy double program. 5.75", 22 inches, 95% double Semi-evergreen, Midseason, reblooms18 buds, (Prickly All Over x Twice The Bite)
