Hybridizer's Comment: From 'Lord of the Rings' comes the all seeing 'Eye Of Sauron'. It is unique to say the least. Mid steely violet blue standards blend to paler violet gray margins. Similarly colored falls have very round eyes (spots) of dark charcoal plum with greenish cream lightning bolts on each side and wide stripes at ends of orange to white beards. Beautiful round form.Use to breed for unusual tangerine bearded green SDBs and even plicatas. Sibling to 'Meow'. Mid-America Garden 2009
