Flutterbye x Military School





FLUTTERBYE (Childs F) 1981 DOR DIP Lavender self with a pale lavender eyezone. Creamy chalky yellow throat fading to lettuce green heart. Petals are deep lavender with a wide, lighter lavender edge - can almost appear near-white - and slight ruffling. Recurved sepals are pale lavender also with a lighter edge. Sometime the sepals actually recurve into themselves and appear paler in color than the petals. A good bloomer with well branched scapes. Excellent plant habits. Early to midseason, 6” blooms, 26” scapes.
