Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A hybrid from New Zealand which has unbelievably large flowers. You can certainly see the influence of 'Loderi' in this fantastic soft pink which forms trusses that are like mountains of pink snow. In the center of each flower is a ring of red that flares out onto the upper petal. Long leaves have wavy margins on a large growing plant. ('Loderi' x unknown)
