The
double AA in the seedling number
means Dance Music bloomed as a nine-month
seedling. In this climate 99% of the seedlings take 2 years to bloom so
this is
an anomaly.
Dance
Music is unusual in other ways as well. Its color is a total
departure from
its siblings and other related crosses. The color is an orchid pink.
What is
strange is that the green white throat is so large on this huge flower
that it
pushes the orchid pink color out to the edges of the flower so that the
flower
presents as a picotee but only because of the throat. The sepals also
present
as green white with orchid pink tips.
Great
plant habit with blooms
presented nicely above the foliage. Despite the modest bud count Dance Music blooms over a long period
due to its rebloom.
