Seedling - KOSTA Raspberry Ripple

KOSTA Raspberry Ripple is an informal decorative seedling first grown in 2024.  Interestingly enough, she only produced one tiny bloom late in the season in her first year. However, she came out with a bang in 2025, consistently pumping out gorgeous blooms on tall, strong stems all season long. 

Affectionately known as my dramatic wild child, she is one of my absolute favorites. 

Bloom size is 5 inches. She will be evaluated in the breeding patch for her second year in 2026.  

All seedlings in the breeding patch will be grown for at least 3 full seasons to assess consistent form, hardiness, and quality before being considered for public release.
