Marbella

Breeder:
Selecta/Ball
Summary:
Unlike many marble cultivars, Marbella has excellent contrast between the narrow creamy white margin and the salmon pink blaze in the middle of each bract. Bracts were carried upright and the foliage was dark green. The uniform, well branched and medium to high vigor plants flowered mid to late season. Plants have a strong upright growth habit.
