Alice Faye is one of my favorites! It is a wonderful performer in my garden! It has a high bud count with better branching & flower size than registered. This might be the only tetraploid in my garden I can say that about! Flower color can range from pale peach to almost neon.
It is extremely pod fertile so if you have a tet you aren't sure about pollen fertility it is a great test plant. But it doesn't set a lot of bee pods if you have no interest in hybridizing.
Overall it is a great plant. It may not be fancy but it is a workhorse in the garden. My only complaint is that it has never rebloomed for me. But only a handful of cultivars in my garden have ever rebloomed and almost all are diploids.
