| I love Chicken on the Run! I got it from Dan himself at his home in Lebanon, OH in 2002 when he introduced it. Great grower! Beautiful flowers every time, every year. Dan uses this one a lot in his hybridizing and is sold out of it most of the time. One of my favorites of his. |

| Very distinctive rich colored blooms. Does extremely well here in Northern KY. Relatively fast increaser with nice tall scapes that are well branched. Looking forward to seedlings from COTR that I started. Love what you teach and teach what you love! |

| I love the color of COTR. Another tall big bloomer with many blooms over a long time period. Great performer here in my small Northern Ky garden. Let the beauty of what you love be what you do. |
