    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A true show-stopper with the largest flowers we've ever seen; 3-1/2" across! In comparison, most hybrids are 2-1/4 to 2-3/4" across. The flowers are close to pure white with a large, deep gold zone and the obligate brown dashes. Stems are exceptionally sturdy and upright.
