| "Butterfly Eye BUTTERFLY EYE (P. Black '25) TB Early-midseason 33” (84cm) Pronounced spicy fragrance. Butterfly Eye is an example of the recently emerging cascade patterns where the fall centers have various contrasting colors, from veins to solid cascades. Light slate violet standards blend to a wide pale violet-white band. Wide pale violet-blue falls help emphasize the cascade patterning. Large dark indigo blue hafts transition to widely spaced dark indigo veins and mottling. Fat beards are an interesting tobacco brown. Strong growth produces show stalks. Sdlg.
