Double type; large; late midseason. Bright crimson; mildly fragrant. Medium height; fairly floriferous; stiff stems. Excellent foliage. Valued because of its late blooming and its large, compact flowers, but it is not generally reliable and often fails to do well. Same as TECUMSEH. “The variety we have under this name is a most desirable red and a good bloomer. There is another variety masquerading under this name.”—Christman.
