From Melrose Gardens catalog 1976: IMPERSONATOR (Babson '75) When it is behaving itself, this is one of the most spectacular flowers ever created. Flowers with a huge 8 inch spread, six horizontally flaring falls so wide they completely overlap, are mid blue-violet paling to white in the center where six scanty beards and three violet style arms complete this massive construction. Herculean stems, well branched, often display three open blossoms for you to marvel at. VALUE 15.00 DISCOUNT PRICE 12.00.
