From Quality Gardens catalog 1930: LADY SACKVILLE (Perry 1923) V.L. 38" Very large, well formed flowers. S. a delightful shade of very light silvery blue. F. a rich dark blue purple. While this is a correct description of the color it gives no adequate idea of the great beauty of the flower. The very marked contrast between the very light blue standards and the very dark falls make this a marvelously beautiful flower and a very outstanding one. $2.50. |
