From AIS Bulletin #197 April 1970 Introducing MYSTIC MIDNIGHT (David Sindt). SDB, 13". (Inca Chief X Sulina), The fifth and last introduction from the varied and outstanding progeny of this cross. A bright, slightly sooty violet with a dark blackish spot in the falls and a deep violet beard. The soft tan style arms create the effect of a strange inner glow, quite different from the usual blacks. Wide petals, flaring form, and vigorous growth typical of its sibs. $7.50.
