Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A yellow with so much more! Peachy-pink overtones along the edges with more of a true yellow in the throat and and a red ring at the base with prominent red spotting on the three upper lobes. The ball-shaped trusses may have as many as 20 broad, funnel-shaped flowers.

The bud color is seen again at the base of the flowers throat with dark red spotting on the three dorsal lobes. The back of the flowers is purplish pink at the edge, melding to yellow with red spotting at the base with calyx. The hairless leaves are broad medium green on top and yellow underneath.
