This smooth, bright and clean full yellow has broad petals with nearly horiwntal falls accented with blue-white beards. The beards are more deeply colored in cool weather. Starts very early with abundant bloom, repeats toward the end of TB season, and then scatters fall bloom from mid-October on. Fall bloom probably too late except in the Sunbelt and West Coast states.
