Domed standards are a delicate pinkish lavender with a flush of salmon beige along the midrib. The corrugated semi-flaring falls are white, shading to a 3/4-inch pinkish lavender band, which in turn is rimmed by salmon beige. Fringed style arms are also salmon beige. Dainty but a strong grower. 35 in. Midseason. HC 1975. $25.00. Echo Hill Gardens.
