Hybridizer's Comment: Yumm, a watermelon pink amoena with blue and purple wash on the styles, cheery yellow signals, and yellow highlights on the pearly standards. The color of the falls can open several shades darker or lighter depending on the weather. The clump is compact, blooming just above the foliage, 3 buds per stalk.
