UNIQUES

The late hybridizer, Francis Hartsook, crossed a vareity of Regals to Old Scarlet Unique to get regal type plants that will perform well in the sun and heat. Her varieties do that they are Bolero, Carefree, Hula, Polka and Voo Doo. The others listed below have been hybridized after these and I am not sure of their background and what they were hybridized with. Some I suspect have 'Oak' the scented leaf in their background.
