*FUCHSIA  KISS


*FUCHSIA KISS (Stamile,P.,1999) TET T-592-A (Chance Encounter X Shimmering Elegance) 30” EMRe. Dor. fr. Emo. ext. 6” x 3 1/4” x 2 1/4”. 3 - 4 way branching. 20 - 25 buds.  FUCHSIA  KISS bloomed as a 9 month old seedling 592-A CHESE.  I smile as I recall a fellow hybridizer asking, “What’s cheese?”  SHIMMERING ELEGANCE gave many dormant 9 month seedlings to bloom but FUCHSIA  KISS was the finest.  This beautiful fuchsia pink with its deep scalloped ruffles in gold represents 18 years of trying to get a pink free of the melon orange tones or beige undertones.  Here is a truly great flat clear outstanding pink that I am very proud of.  Wonderful clarity, substance, flat open blooms, heavy fluted burnished ruffling, fragrance, dormancy , this flower seems to have it all.  Fertile both ways……………………..$100.00
