Stunning color.
Innovative addition to the Queeny series. Glowing, apricot blooms with a blush of lime and bright rose centers. A popular color combination suitable for market flowers and sophisticated design work. Mostly double and semidouble, 2–3 1/2″ blooms with a small percentage of singles. Cut-and-come-again flower, yielding multiple cuts over the season. Compared to Benary’s Giant Salmon Rose, blooms are smaller with a lighter, more subtle coloring. Color gradient gives a unique three-dimensional appearance. Previously and widely known as ‘Queen Lime Orange.’ Over the years, as the breeder has developed new colors in the series, he has transitioned the series name from “Queen” to “Queeny.” To respect his wishes, we have updated the product names accordingly. AAS winner.

| DAYS TO GERMINATION | 3-5 days at 80-85°F (27-29°C) |
| SOWING | Transplant (recommended) – Sow into 72-cell flats or preferred seedling container 4 weeks before planting out. Cover seeds. A heat mat will help maintain an accurate temperature. Lower temperatures will result in slower germination: 5-7 days at 70-75°F (21-24°C). Do not allow plants to become root bound and avoid disturbing roots; transplant shock or other stress events may cause double-flowering varieties to produce single blooms for a period following stress. Direct seed – Sow 1/4" deep. Succession-sow/plant every 2 weeks for prolonged yields of high-quality stems. Pinching of initial bud or bloom and subsequent deadheading is recommended to encourage strong branching and bloom production. Very sensitive to frost. |
