Anecdotal Notes
Brilliant pale pink delicate flower in large clusters. Often the flowers only partially open. Flowers early in the season and again late. The scent is intensely strong and coconut. Beautiful Pinkish-plum with orange-yellow toward center, petal nice and round with overlapping, cup shaped flowers with dark plum band on the back, flowers is open half way so it looks like a bundle of stars together, strong sweet rose fragrant. Dwarf Watermelon is not a dwarf tree. Great bloomer with wonderful fragrance. Sweet strawberry fragrance. Late bloomer. Reliable. Recommended for fragrance. Water lover. Very strong spicy rosé fragrance. Small cupped flowers that don't always open. Sometimes has 6 petals. As they fade, color goes to dusky lavender. It is NOT a true dwarf, but very slow grower. Poor brancher. It sometimes blooms and does not split. Because of the slow growth, the leaf scars are very close together. 2" maximum. Fragrance is rose and maybe grape-ish. The inflorescence can get so large that it may become pendulous. Flowers are small but the inflorescences can get HUGE. Under proper conditions, produces huge flower heads, and mostly un-opened blooms. Tends to drop buds. Blooms fade to lavender and are small. Very slow growing. Occasionally set seeds.
