DETAILED DESCRIPTION
You might not expect the Sooner sister of Mister Lincoln to have such a dusky dark red color. But yes, she does have the same delicious scent. The color is so dark red that it is nearly black velvet in warm weather.
GROWTH HABIT
This most known of the black-reds produces big buds and graceful flowers on a bushy plant beset with large leaves. Darkest color & best performance with some heat.
