From Walter Marx Gardens catalog 1955: THREE SIGNALS (Marx 1954) Each 7.50. Large smooth violet blue distinguished by a big white blaze on each fall just beyond the yellow beard. We know of only one other variety, Pinafore Lass, that is anything like this novel introduction. The semi-flaring flowers are produced on well-branched 3-1/2 foot stems.
