From Walter Marx Gardens catalog 1957: FOG LIGHT (Marx 1956) Each 3.00. Both in the old and new meaning of the word, a cool combination of yellow and white. Standards of a clear, lustrous shade of sulphur yellow are set off against chalk white falls bordered in soft yellow and enlivened by an intense golden yellow haft and beard. Three to five large but graceful flowers open at once on erect 3-1/2 to 4 foot stems above luxuriant bright green foliage. A 2 to 3 year old clump is a beautiful sight. Midseason.
