Hybridizer's Comment: 'Deep Currents' is beautifully formed with just the right amount of ruffles and a classy lilt to draw you closer. Standards are dark red purple with cream centers heavily sanded dark red purple. Cream falls have black purple bands and hafts with inner circles of lighter red purple sanding and dotting. Smoldering burnt orange beards end in short red purple darts. Stalks have three well-spaced branches and 8-10 buds.
