From Keith Keppel Iris catalog, 2017: BOND GIRL L-VL 32” ((Eye Candy sib x (Social Graces x Vienna Waltz)) X Performing Arts) #07-127C. A repeat of the cross which produced Arrivederci, this has an ultra-feminine look that 007would find hard to resist. Flawless orchid to phlox pink standards, falls pinkish lilac paling on the upper center. White beards minimally touched flame in the throat. Dressed in heavy ruffles and lace, this vixen with flare and flair may be short but she will go a long way to please you with her 7-9 buds. $50. |
