This broadpetaled self of full orange-buff (RHS 507/1) with bright orange beards is described by visitors as apricot. The domed standards and flaring falls are nicely ruffled and complete the picture of a bright and fluffy gown reminiscent of a Spanish folk festival. Sturdy stalks bear 3 branches plus terminal and 7-9 buds beginning midseason and lasting to late. Fertile both ways.
