MOLTEN MOON – Hunter-L. 2025
An Unusual Form Crispate, ‘Molten Moon’ is from a packet of seeds that would have stayed in my refrigerator more years than I care to admit, if Luna hadn’t decided that she wanted to plant them in her seedling patch. Apparently she saw potential in this cross that I ignored. This is her 4th registration, so she’d pretty good at that.
This addition to her moon themed introductions is tiger orange with darker veining, a green heart, and a large gold throat that expands onto the petals and sepals. There is a prominent gold rib on the pinched petals. The petals and sepals lighten towards the outer edge, sometimes ending in a fine gold line. Subtle ruffles on the petals complete the package. ‘Molten Moon’ is very showy, and stands out from a distance. It’s fertile both ways with offspring in the wings.
$90 / double fan
