More information

The vivid colors recalled the “crazy twenties” to the breeder, which is reflected in the name. Within yellow-red floribundas, it shows a strong contrast between new and older blooms with almost no intermediate pink phase, unlike many other varieties. Foliage is leathery, dark green. Suitable for gardens with a low incidence of fungal diseases.

Large semi-double flowers in clusters, yellow with red spots; over time the red color darkens. Requires prevention against black spot.

Buds are pointed. Flowers are bright yellow with an orange-red border, becoming dark red; open, large (7–8 cm), slightly wavy (20 petals), in inflorescences. Leaves are dark green, leathery, glossy. Bushes are medium height (50–60 cm), upright, compact. Flowering is very abundant. Winter-hardy. For groups, borders.
