Hybridizer's Comment: One of the most exciting seedlings we have flowered from Decadence to date. Standards are butterscotch-apricot to honey-apricot. Falls are the same base colour overlaid and veined light red burgundy deepening to red burgundy each side of the beards. Beards are bright tangerine red. Flowers are horizontally flared, ruffled and of medium size. Branching is good with three flowers out at once. It is proving to be a lovely parent and is very fertile either as pod or pollen. Makes a gorgeous show early in the season and is bound to be grown for a long time. Sister to Candy Colours.
