Anecdotal Notes
#147 Possibly the same as Moragne KK, possibly Ruby Too. Has been mistagged as Cathy Moragne. #147 white, medium gold throat, gold eye, white underside; petals lifted and incurved, widely overlapped at center, becoming separated, wide, rounded with slight point; very strong jasmine scent. Jasmine-scented 4" white with a medium gold throat. Petals are lifted, curve inwardly, and are slightly overlapped in the center. 4" with white with gold throat and golden eye, white under the petals, petal lifted and incurved, rounded with slight point, jasmine fragrance. Pale pink band on reverse. Growth habit is dense and rangy. Green leaves are oblanceolate with acuminate tips. Pod parent: Daisy Wilcox. Pollen parent: Scott Pratt. Named for the granddaughter of William Moragne Sr. From tightly packed clusters come snowy white and gold plumeria blooms. It’s 3 ½ inches in diameter. Hybridized by William Moragne Sr., it’s named Edie Cooke Moragne, after a granddaughter. Fabulous large cream with a thin pink rim around petal edges. Fragrance is very sweet, keeping quality is good. 3.5 -4” and gorgeous blooms. Texture is heavy and good keeping quality. Should be grafted. Edi on the south coast of Calif is a pretty pale yellow with slight pink, and much heavier texture than Samoan Fluff. Edi has one of my favorite plumeria scents. Huge unusual leaves. Sensitive to soil compaction. Hard to root. Medium yellow with a blush of pink on the edge of the petals, 3” size flower, with a medium texture, petal slightly rounded and overlapping with an eye on the center. Bloom in tight bundle. Great jasmine scents in a warm weather and become peachy jasmine in a cooler climate.
