Hybridizer's Comment: Done in soft Easter colors:light yeilow standards, pale lavender blue falls with a more deeply colored vertical central wash giving it distinction. A touch of yellow on the hafts plus beards that change from lavender to yellow help unite the flower parts visually. Multi-branched stalks (up to four branches with the lowest rebranched) can carry as many as a dozen buds, giving an unusually long bloom season. Domed standards and semi-flared falls are ail gently waved and ruffled.
