Dragon Seeker
(Gossard, James) 2011 introduction
(Oakes Love x Heavenly Mr. Twister )
Diploid 29" Mid season Evergreen emo fr 7.5" 3 way branching 18 buds. Fertile both ways. Rebloomer
Dragon Seeker is dark red flower with a darker red eye zone. The throat is very green. Flower form is UFO cascade. Lots of curly motion going on. A good hybridizing flower for very green throated red spiders. I expect the branching and bud count to be much greater in zones 6 and above. Grows well unmulched in my zone 5 Ohio garden. Also grows like a weed, thus the lower price. At least double fans.......$100 Clump
