Hybridizer's Comment: If we said this was a milky coffee-copper-peach-coral blend with a huge violet blaze stretching out about 1/3 of the way over the falls, then you will have some idea of how this really looks, but its to be seen to be appreciated. Beards are light burnt tangerine. Flowers are exquisite with ruffles and an audacious lilt. Branching is good. Nice parent. One of our favourites. A delicious perfume is an added bonus. |
