Although you can see the influence of the pod parent, BUTTER AND SUGAR, there is a definite green cast to this bloom. The standards are a very pale creamy white with green lines. The fringed stylearms are very creamy yellow. The falls are creamy white with green veins, light chartreuse yellow sides and haft area with a very green cast radiating from the signal area to the outer edge. The bloom stalks are branched nicely, and can carry 4 to 5 blooms per stalk. A well balanced plant which blooms for an extended period, and in addition is a very vigorous grower. $35.00.
