Breeder:
Dummen
Summary:
The plants were medium to high vigor and flowered mid to late season. A few years back, late season would have been mid-December, but now with many growers any time after Thanksgiving counts as late, which was the case with Protégé Dark Red. The medium red bracts were held flat to upright.
