LANCELOT'S LOVE
(Elizabeth O. Shooter, 2002)
22 M Re Fr Dor. #92-483. 6-3-2. Diploid.
Pretty as a ruffled organdy dress is this alluring bloom
of flamingo pink touched lavender. Large (2 1/2") center is chartreuse
and light green. Raised wide lavender-pink midribs. Pink stamen. Yellow-cream
thread edge on petals. Form is flat and triangular with segment tips recurving
or tucking. Very ruffled, waved, fringed at tips. Finger ruffles on petals,
tiny gathered ruffles on sepals. Very velvety, smooth texture; heavy substance.
Three-way branching, 15-18 buds. Superior for color, form, and brightness.
