It is one of the first SDBs to bloom. Can't Wait comes on strong and keeps blooming and blooming. As a one year plant, it produced 12 increase the first year. Flower form is tailored and not overly wide, but it makes up for this in the impact it has as a clump. Standards are dark purple black and falls are velvety black.
Big beards are rich old gold layered over a dark purple base which gives a brown appearance.
There is a lot of tangerine in the background which should produce extremely vigorous blacks with orange beards when used as a parent. We're certainly giving it a try. Tu Tu Turquoise was one of the results. Even though it had the color, it lacked some other essential qualities. After several generations, I have taller stalks, fuller form and better growth in this variety called, Cold River.
