  • Posted by Joy (Kalama, Wa. - Zone 8b) on Dec 3, 2011 5:22 AM concerning plant:
    This 8-9inch peach spider variant blooms atop 28" scapes that have one side branch. The form is an unruly crispata: the sepals twist in different crispation patterns and the petals sometimes pinch, sometimes twist, sometimes recurve. The effect is very provocative, however, in that the soft peach colour is a very well-behaved hue and the form, on the other hand, incorrigible. Superbly branched scapes, superb displays of flowers! Wonderful pale peach colour. Variable CRISPATA of the Unusual Form Class
