    This dark yellow trumpet comes from Tasmania. It is seed and pollen fertile. Fahan has been utilized 6 times as a seed parent and 22 times as pollen parent. Registered with RHS before the midpoint of last century.
    All except one cross was done in Australia. The exception was an Irishman's creation of 'Fine Gold' in 1946.
