Pure reds are sadly lacking in my garden, but I have put together a collection of what I consider my favorite reds:
EMPEROR'S ROYAL RED - My favorite, sent to me by mistake, and I love the pure deep red velvety texture!
CARY GRANT - A gift plant
HELIX - More of a deep oxblood red with yellow-green, but it's a favorite!
DOUBLY HOT - I'm not that fond of the doubles, but this one has a hot, deep velvety red color that turns a wonderful velvety orange-red by afternoon.
THIN MAN - Unfortunately, this one can look pretty strange sometimes.
Does anyone else have any reds you'd like to share?
