This is an old cross but a very nice one.

How old:poke: I was going to guess Mem. Connie Truax but that's only 11 years old. Whatever it is has micranthum as one parent, right?
 
I thought cochlo by micranthm at first too, but only one bud per stem. Stems are tall too. Maybe some fairrieanum in there? Tanya Pinkepank (mic X fair)??? Wouldn't consider it "old" either tho. [EDIT- afterthought] Maybe Black Diamond (del X fair)- our division of Joel Edwards' 'Cestnut' clone does have a dark spike and bud?

This was TOOOOOOOO easy!! Mr Ernie, you're just too good

It is indeed Black Diamond, delenatii X fairrieanum
 
Gold Diamond (armeniacum X fairrieanum) is on my wish list. Anyone seen it???
