Polianthes 'Pink Sapphire' is an incredibly exciting breakthrough in tuberose breeding from Huang Kuang-Liang at Taiwan's Taipei University. By crossing the florist Polianthes tuberosa with the hardier Mexican Polianthes howardii, Huang was able to develop a hardier tuberose strain with both fragrance and color. Polianthes 'Pink Sapphire', which has been superb in our trials, produces 3' tall stalks of fragrant, double pink flowers from late July until frost...simply amazing!
