Comments: Glorious wavy edged flowers are dark red-purple flowing to a very light purple deep in the throat. A stunning large green-yellow blotch with a near white halo. Certainly a color combination for the heavens. This is a good substitution for 'Frank Galsworthy'. Though not quite as dark it still retains the golden eye and is a much, much better plant form.
