Hybridizer's comment: The standards are pure white, erect and strong to the point where we can see the stylearms and they are also white and gorgeously ruffled. Falls are white with a blended edge of lavender deepening at the hafts to lavender violet. Beards are vivid tangerine. Even though the standards are not closed as the purists would like, this is a delight and all who have seen it love it. Fertile but not easy.
