Clover's Creations-Take Two

My favorite Clover creation is MEHTA. It is not a spider or unusual form, nor a polytepal... merely a very lovely, ethereal flower. It carries 8-inch pale lavender blooms on 42-inch scapes, and is a semi-evergreen diploid. All of Clover's introductions have been diploids, by the way. The parentage is [CERULEAN STAR X(JULIA'S CHOICE X GIVE ME EIGHT)]. It will be interesting to see if my crosses of LEE REINKE X MEHTA will produce any polytepals. In any event MEHTA continues to be one of the outstanding flowers here at Brookside Gardens.
