From Bay View Gardens catalog,1991: SIGNPOST, 40 inches, late to very late season. $35.00. The name suggests that this is the first of our orange band line. Very large blooms on tall sterns with plentiful buds. The standards are mid to deep orange and the falls are white with a precise orange band. Light ruffling and tangerine beard completes this new adventure. The pedigree of the year.
