From Schreiner’s catalog, 2016: RINGS TRUE (Schreiner 2016) M. 37” BONUS. At first glance, our attention is drawn to the dazzling contrast between the snow white ground of the falls, and the blue purple stitching encircling the petals. Then, taking in the standards and the lovely interplay of clean white with lavender highlighting, it seems clear. The standards are the more sublime beauty. Rings True, with its Emma Cook pattern, is a child of it parents. It has the color of Charleston, and the form and defined banding of Petticoat Shuffle. See the photo at left with 8 buds per stem.
