The large flowers are beautifully ruffled in both standards and falls, showing clearly the inheritance from its two superb parents. There are many buds and the flowers are heavily substanced and therefore long lasting. The falls have a light flush of Elmohr's red-violet coloring. The standards are nicely domed and retain their position even in heavy rain, wind and sun.The plants are vigorous and easy to grow. Sets seed readily. $20.00
