Description: What a tall and gracious honey! Wonderful color scheme and saturation, and the "argyle" form to this UF is really sweet as well. Much influence from its father (Meggie's Smile)... though certainly "different" in terms of (most notably) size and height. As you can see in the second photo, 5-way branching isn't uncommon. In the 3rd, you'll see rebloom scapes starting to bloom - when the first is still blooming! That's FAST!

This line of breeding has brought together nicely the dormancy and great plant habit of the great hybridizers Munson, Sellers, and Rice!

Great breeder in itself - tremendously fertile... producing kids like FANTASMA (Owen, '14).
