Pleated Beauty seed pods

Norwalk, IA(Zone 5b)

I found these by accident tonight on the large plant of Pleated beauty...it was growing inbetween Inca Sun and V.EP so either could be the pollen parents..no one knows! The pods are shaped more like the Inca Sun pods then they are like EP's :-)

It was a white ruffled and pleated large flowered hybrid I did a while back...was going to dump it..then it bloomed..big time...so decided to keep her.

Pleated Beauty's flowers angle almost straight out from the stems...very different bloom habit.In cool weather the edge gets some peach or pink.Usually stays white.
