BEDOUIN TATTOO X CRAFTED BY THUNDER
In saluting the grandeur of nature, Ansel Adams eloquently translated through his black and white images a deeper vision of the spiritual importance in preserving our wilderness. Reminiscent of the mists and shadows in his photographs, this cultivar is a unique statement in dark patterns. The color is an unusual orchid lavender with a distinctive shadowy eye pattern of violet purple surrounding a round chartreuse throat. These full formed 5” flowers are very flat and broad, edged in subtle delicate ruffles. The stout erect scapes display four through five lateral branches. Fertile both ways, ANSEL ADAMS is emerging as a most fascinating and fruitful parent.
