Hybridizer's Comment: See below: Intricate artwork. Standards blackish russet, with cream yellow ground barely showing in the central area. Arched falis open with bright lemon gold ground which ages to a softer creamy yellow. Dark burgundy maroon peppering and veining obscures the upper falI, continuing as a wide dotted margin, more solid at the distal tip. Beards inconspicuous, brown. Great color contrast gives garden impact.
