From Mid-America Garden catalog, 1984: CLASSIC TREASURE - BB, 26" (66 cm), Midseason. This was one of the most exciting seedlings seen at the St. Louis convention. Superlatives do it little justice. Stark white blooms are decorated with a showy blue rim on the falls and creamy yellow beards. Both standards and falls are ruffled. Stalks have two branches plus spur and seven to eight buds. This variety opens up a whole new world of breeding possibilities. It very well may be a treasure. Sdlg. M-4: G-39:((Moldovan M-66-lQ: 3rd Gen.
