An unusual Japanese-form variety that provides intrigue with flowers that are exotic in appearance, perhaps captured in the name of this variety. Sword Dance’s Japanese-form flowers have brilliant rose-red guard petals that encircle a unique central mass of same coloured, rippled staminodes that are etched in gold. These warm, rich colours, in addition to being sun-proof,  are great companions and are worn well by a very attractive, distinct flower. Flowers are held upright on tall, capable stems and plants flower in abundance and show great vigor. Good cut flower qualities. Occasional side buds present that extend the bloom period. We’re a big fan of this showy colour combination and form!
