Looking for comment on 'Midnight Frolic'

8 years ago

last modified: 8 years ago

My foray into ebay netted me a Russian Blue and a leaf of Midnight Frolic.

The plant came looking absolutely perfect and about 1/2 way to bloom I'd say (2-3 months is my expectation).

The leaf looks lovely (ie it's variety), though it's ambiguous whether it's a blue or a purple (some google images show either) or even near white with a central star of lighter color.

Basically just looking to see what folks say and what color theirs is.

Since this is a Lyndon Lyon hybrid, check out the source:

Midnight Frolic

Pleasing, single and semidouble, extremely large stars, are produced in velvety looking shades of plum and purple. The frilly edges, painted in wide bands of white, are tinted with hues of lavender and light plum. The medium green foliage is plain, variegated in white.

That was exactly as I had originally thought it before Google confuse me with all the different colors labeled as this name. Ty

If you have several plantlets coming - grow to boom every singe one of them. Leave the best of them for your collection. Since flower is quite interesting - two-tone, edge etc - you will probably get different degrees of how these features will be expressed. Barely - good - and way too much.
