5. 2014 seedling from 'Emerald Ruff Cut'. Was divided last year and this is half of it. It's also in a pot as I didn't think it was doing as well as it could in its previous location and I'm seeing a lot of growth on it this year. I love the ruffled leaves. It's currently in an 8" pot.

6. 2016 seedling from 'Curly Fries' which looks very similar to its parent except that it doesn't have a hint of red at the base of the leaves.

7. 2016 seedling from 'Emerald Ruff Cut'. It's quite similar to #5 above except it's green and it seems to bloom more readily.

8. 2016 seedling from 'Purple Heart'. This one has very red petioles and a lovely deep purple, late season bloom on red scapes. It's become quite a large plant. I reached in and divided out a couple of eyes in early June and you'd never know they were taken.
