Finally our wishes were granted! Beige pink standards, flaring rich lobelia blue-violet falls which pale with age at the margins and inner haft. Beards a mixture of violet blue, lavender white and predominantly tan orange. Flared falls waved and ruffled, stalks well-branched. We've been pleased by its seedlings so far. #06-77X. $50.00. |
