  BLUEBERRY TRUMPETS (Sobek) 47", D., E., 3 1/4"                    $60.00

Only a miniature, but what an extraordinary color break Bob has found in this hybrid for our early bloom season. Trumpet like flowers of deep blue-purple with a pleasing creamy green throat tower above the other perennials in the spring garden. Not an unusual bud count at 18 buds per scape, but its multiple scapes, height and color say, “Hey, look at me.” It may seem like a flash appearance but a fabulous color especially when grown with the contrast of other early daylilies like "Suzie Wong" or "Neon Yellow."
