The Royal Mixed is two weeks later to flower than Concord and has a blend of rich velvety purple, deep pink, and red. Rooted cutting available are the Olympus series which are early to bloom. The flowers are held well above the foliage and bloom continuously. Colors range from bi-color dark blues and purples to pure whites. Bavarian Belle is another series propagated from cuttings which features larger flower and smaller, more narrow leaves as compared to the seed varieties.
Colors range from rich purple to pastel blue, soft pinks and shades of deep reds.
This series is noted for its short leaves, smaller than most other series, compact growth habit, rapid flower response, and floriferousness. The individual flowers are smaller than other series, but what it lacks in flower size, it more than makes up for in shear volume of flowers. Colors range from white with lavender-pink centers to soft pink to red to purple.
