From AIS Bulletin #185 April 1967 Introducing WISHING HoUR. 25.00. A delightful blend of bluish-pink and canary yellow. The domed standards are predominately pink with shadings of yellow, while the widely flaring falls are a reverse of the same color combination. Hafts are extremely broad, almost overlapping, and start a cascade of pleated ruffles that extend down the side of the falls. Weather resistant substance. Heavy orange beard. Healthy foliage lightly brushed purple at the base. Fertile both ways. 32". Midseason. Seedling #146-3A. VALIMAR X FRILLY FRINGES. HC 1966. Cherry Lane Gardens.
