Description

Registered Cultivar: A selection by James Black from seed material of Toy Jennings. The cross was 'Ella van Zijl' x Berties Special Bicolour. The distinctive colour pattern of the flower, which is uniform from petal to petal, starts with Salmon D5 in the central area of the petal, surrounded by Apricot D6 and is bordered in a band of Light Pink D1. All areas exhibit a ghosting effect which is most pronounced in the border D1. The throat is green. Leaves average 50cm long x 4cm wide. It is named as a model of excellence or perfection of kind, as this flower colour pattern has not been observed by the grower before.
