From AIS Bulletin #281 April 1991 Introducing CAIRO LADY (Ray Lyons) 22" ML. Sdlg. 82-15-2.7-8 buds. A perky little version of Cairo Lyric, its pollen parent, with the added charm of Brown Lasso, its pod parent. Rich bronze ruffled and fluted standards enhance its flaring, lightly scrolled falls of royal purple "black". Its dark bronze beard completes the vision of a bronze skinned, heavily veiled maiden of the Far East. EC 1990. $20.00. Long's Gardens.
