The inner petal edges are ruffled. The well rounded petals overlap. As the blooms mature the petals reflex backwards. Mature bloom size varies from 2-3″ depending upon watering habits. The leaves are attractive with a deep green, are below average in size and do not hide the bloom heads. Baby Doll blooms easily with good bloom production and long lasting blooms. The growth habit is upright with excellent triple-branching with each inflorescence.
Named in honor of Carroll Baker and her role in the 1956 movie ‘Baby Doll’. The film had very limited distribution and was pulled from many theaters as it was sensually ahead of its time.
