Description:

This flower has been SO dreamy, ever since first blooming! The huge flower is just SO placid and soulful... as if it wants the whole world to see it's inner beauty as it stretches out to present itself upon nice tall scapes. The color and form combine in a way that really draws you in... not sure if it's the sweet clean look, pure docile nature, gentle ruffles, or in the end, the lovely fragrance! There's just so much too her beauty! I must say though, this gal's a LOT tougher than she looks! I've seen her doing a FAB job growing to full spec in Minnesota, with no tears at all!

The name: Though I do really like the song with the title by Fergie, there was something about the color pattern of this flower that seemed so femininely young and innocent to me... yet it was so BIG! Because it really tugged at my heart every time I'd see it blooming, the emotional aspect just had to come into play. Therefore, the name came to me... and it fits!

2022: Very little in circulation... a VERY worthwhile collector's plant, as well as TONS of breeding potential!  Was able to trade back for these in 2021, and FINALLY have some available for the 2022 season... AT LAST!  Even dropped the price... so "Add to Cart"... el PRONTO!!!
