    Reverse bi-tone, starts out in the morning with a purple dusky overlay. As the day wears on, the color changes into a beautiful sunset orange.
    It will set some polytepal bloom, but not reliably.
    I have seedlings out of Thailand Sunset, but I've learned that the unexpected is to be expected. I never know what I'm going to get.
