WD Brooke

WD Brooke (sometimes listed as WB’s Brooke) is a fiery and romantic decorative variety that has become a standout for its unique color transitions and dramatic garden presence. It is celebrated for its "nonstop" blooming habit and striking contrast against dark stems, making it a premier choice for both vibrant garden beds and sophisticated floral arrangements. 

• Color: Burnt Orange-Red / Peach. Features a unique, glowing burnt orange-red that creates a high-contrast look in the garden. As the blooms mature, they gracefully transition to a soft, romantic peach.
• Form: Formal Decorative (FD). A double bloom with neatly organized, symmetrical petals that create a full and classic silhouette. Some specialty growers also describe its appearance as similar to a Waterlily type.
• Bloom Size: Small (BB). These prolific blooms typically measure approximately 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter, a size considered "terrific" for bouquets.
• Height: Tall. A vigorous and stately grower that reaches a mature height of approximately 4 to 5 feet (120–150 cm).
• Performance: Prolific "Bloom Machine." Praised as a top-tier performer that pumps out flowers all season long on long, strong stems. It is highly valued by growers as an "excellent tuber maker," ensuring a reliable increase in stock each year.
