Hummingbird

Description

Hummingbird bears 60 mm-wide, clear deep-yellow flowers of good substance, with reflexed, ovate perianth segments whose wavy margins overlap only at the base. The inner segments may be twisted or more strongly waved, while the lightly ribbed, cylindrical corona has a very slightly flared mouth and notched rim. An early-blooming member of Grant Mitsch’s “Bird Series,” it was named for hummingbirds that thrive in Oregon.
