Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A youngianum hybrid with unusually large flowers and white, uncommonly long spurs accentuated by dark pink wings. In addition, the flowers are held well above the foliage, which in turn is tinted purple in spring. The sum of all that: It's special! Clumping and deciduous.
