− | + | My finest near-white rebloomer yet! | |
+ | |||
+ | Sib to [[Snowy Stella]], White And Nerdy has everything you could want except a bagel form. It is one of the very few LARGE continuous rebloomers, at 4.5 inches, and may be the only one that is not yellow. It is whiter than any tetraploid "white", has a green throat, good ruffling and heavy diamond dusting. At 16 buds, it has more than twice the budcount of [[Stella De Oro]], and sends up three sets of scapes in my garden. In optimal conditions, it will bloom 11 weeks or more. It is vigorous and has excellent foliage. | ||

+ | White And Nerdy is one of the most important breeders in my program. It is pod and pollen fertile. When crossed to other continuous rebloomers, it throws a high percentage of reblooming kids. Even more interesting, it tends to throw great color clarity, high budcount, large green throats and a great deal of green in sepals as well. Look at some of the descendents below for examples. | ||
