"Black Forest," the pronouncable trade name for 'Schwarzwalder,' is somewhat invigorous. There are two (or perhaps one) new clones out that are from ol' Schwartz, being "Edge of Night." (Mine got the Erwinia and bit the dust, dangit.) and 'Black Star,' which, in my experience is medium to vigorous and awesome awesome awesome. Darke veins, stems, edges, flower.... I wish I could find that picture from last year! "Edge of Night" http://www.terranovanurseries.com/wholesale/modules.php?name... And "Black Star." http://www.plantdelights.com/gallery/HollandBelgium2004/2431... I would love to know if they are different or the same- and one fo the two introducors is being a dog. But, seeing as how I do not have 'EoN' any more that I know of, it will be hard to know... Oh look what I just found: http://www.plantdelights.com/Catalog/Fall/page70.html So, finally, a rhemanii hybrid (Maybe 'Gem Rose, or 'Dark Eyes') in my border with Delosperma nubigenum Kenton |
