Dracula’s Kiss is appropriately dark and dramatic, with nearly black falls set beneath deep purple standards and a flash of bright orange at the center. 36″ (91 cm), Late Midseason bloom. The standards and style arms are a rich, dark purple, while the falls deepen to an exceptionally dark purple-black. Bright tangerine beards provide a vivid contrast against the otherwise dark flower.
