Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Glorious wavy edged flowers are dark red-purple flowing to a very light purple deep in the throat. A stunning large green-yellow blotch with a near white halo. Certainly a color combination for the heavens. This is a good substitution for 'Frank Galsworthy'. Though not quite as dark it still retains the golden eye and is a much, much better plant form.

The beautiful wavy edged flowers are deep reddish purple, shading to very pale purple in throat, with a large greenish yellow blotch. The plant has a rather loose, erect habit. ('Blue Bell' x 'Purple Splendour')
