A delicately shaded mix of cream and pale blue violet, blending to a white eye, and with deep violet buds. Large florets. The cool watercolor shades are very pretty, but it is not a very heavy bloomer. Prone to powdery mildew, so plant in cool well-watered conditions to keep the plants happy, and thereby reduce the incidence of mildew.
