8/2020 Update: This plant is in the tiered planter. It has small foliage and has not sent up a scape. Maybe next year.

7/2022 -I'm not sure if this one survived. I haven't seen any blooms like this come up.  Evergreens don't do well in Nebraska so it was a risk.

8/2020 Update:
This one has not put off a scape. It's in the tiered planter and has been overwhelmed by more aggressive plants. I'll move it and hopefully will see better results next year.

2022 Update: It finally bloomed! Worth the wait. It's thick and stunning like Puppuccino Morning.

Riseman's Flame (Hansen, 1990)

2024 Update: 3 extra fans.

Color: cream yellow with rose red overlaid patterns above green throat

Parentage: ((Princess Ellen × sdlg) × (Pat Mercer × sdlg))

scape height		22 in, (56 cm)
bloom size		6 in, (15 cm)
bloom season		Early-Midseason, Rebloom
ploidy		Diploid
foliage type		Semi-Evergreen
fragrance		Fragrant
bloom habit		Extended

8/2020 Update:
Riseman's Flame is stunning in person. She has thick petals and her diamond dusting is the most pronounced among all of my flowers. It looked like glitter was sprinkled on the petals. I used the pollen on other flowers that set pods and once I started snipping the spent blooms, it set pods as well.
