(Gossard, James) 2011 introduction
(Etched Eyes x Forever in Time x Tetra Crystal Blue Persuasion )
Tetraploid 29" Mid season Evergreen emo fr 5" 3 way branching 18 buds. Fertile both ways. Rebloomer
Butterfly King is cream yellow flower with a butterfly pattern, consisting of blues, oranges, whites, purples, violets, and maroon colors. Colors are also carried around the petal edges. I had garden name as Jagged eye, because of the jagged outer maroon eye zone. Imagine if we could get these jagged streaking's to cover the flower. Some small jagged teeth are sometimes seen. A good parent for producing Butterfly patterns.......$100
