Default Bulb Doris Dukes
I'm sure that just about everyone has seen Bulb Doris Dukes, a Bill Thoms cross named after his wife Doris. This particular cultivar has some of the longest fringe that I have ever seen.

Yes we have, but not in such an awesome close up!! Good job getting it to bloom. Thanks for sharing this.

It has no noticeable smell that I could detect, I had it right up in my face in 90 degree temps this afternoon as I was pulling pollen from it. I think I would sensed if it were a stinky one.
