Hybridizer's Comment : Standards are white and falls are blended magenta violet, lightening towards the edge. Around the vivid tangerine beards is an area of creamy white with violet-magenta veining running through it. Well balanced flowers, nicely ruffled and with plenty of show stems, it is bound to earn its place on the show bench. Fertile but few crosses made to date. |
