Full Description

TB, 38″ (97 cm). Midseason bloom. Color Class-V1, Pinkish lilac self, tangerine beard. From two pink seedlings.

From Cooley’s Gardens 1962-  Fluffy pale pinkish lilac, or might be described as an orchid shade with a faint hint of blue in its make-up. Standards and falls are identical in color, the hafts lighter in tone, and a tangerine beard literally sets the center on fire.  The flowers are large and beautifully formed, the stems well branched.  Bubby and frothy as an evening gown beset with jewels in the form of the brilliant beards.
