D. E. Blend of pink, salmon and cream. No seedling number nor parentage given. This full double globular flower is a remarkable blend of pink, salmon and cream. It has excellent stems, straight and strong, and stands above average height, 36-40 inches. It is also especially valuable for its early blooming. If it had not won the Bank award it would have ‘been introduced under the name COLOR MARVEL. It will be available to the public in 1963.

*NOTE: 02/20/2022.  ‘Weatherball 90’ images are under review.   Plants grown in the United States and Europe are highly variable.  Flowers in images are often quite different and would not be considered the same cultivar, however, growing conditions may impact this to a degree.  At this time there appears to be at least some mistakenly identified plants of this cultivar and determining which are valid will take time and further evidence.
