(Kirchhoff) 37" E Re Ex Ev 6 1/4" The blooms tower above the plant in pristine ice lavender pink set off by a pale yellow to green throat and ruffled gold edge. The form is full, round, ruffled and overlapped. Color and substance are sunfast. Texture is diamond dusted. The strongly recurrent scapes have 4 way (widely spaced) branching and up to 36 buds. Pollen is sterile, though it is extremely pod fertile - yielding many seed. (Seedling x Requiem for Diana) X Ed Brown
