Teresa, you gave us a pick 3 and you only picked 1 ?
Great looking picks everyone!
Hmmm...pick 3...
Waggle Dance and sibling Malala (do siblings count as one?) Both have beautiful blooms with appliques and open well for me regardless of the temp during bloom time. Waggle Dance has consistent wide 4 way branching, Malala, 3 way. The applique on Malala is bigger, Waggle Dance has a cleaner base color. Both are easy to use pod or pollen and are good parents for hardy plants with applique patterns.
Painted On Jeans, blooms for 4 - 5 weeks, hardy, super scapes with 4 way branching, the blooms are a clean pink with a blue violet eye. Easy to use both ways ...the most pod fertile plant in the garden and a great parent for working on blue eyes.
Lost in the Translation, the only thing I wish this one was is taller! Great plant with nice foliage. Seemed like the 9 fan clump was in bloom every day from mid July to mid August. Blooms have a beautiful patterned watermark nice base color, easily fertile.
