Hybrid seedling plant in a 100mm pot. Near flowering size.

One of our breeding objectives is for plants with “show stopping” solid orange flowers, and better yet, when it’s a big head of 6-8 flowers of show stopping orange. This cross combines the 5-6, large, full shaped flowers of ‘Halycon’ with the 7-9, bright orange flowers of ‘Golden Satisfaction’ the expectation is orange flowers, of good shape in a head of 6-8…on target with our goal
