Chivalry (David Hall) A clear, deep, velvety red with no midrib variation of 
color; almost a true red “self” except for a little greenish-yellow deep down in 
the throat. It is definitely red, not brown, as are so many of the so-called reds. 
Color holds well in the sun. A prolific bloomer. The flowers are medium large 
on well-branched stems of medium height. A good strong grower. $4.00
