ED BROWN X JUDICIOUS CHOICES
A garden plant of the first order, adorned with elegant blossoms of tranquility and transcendence. Reminding me of lace and Victorian linens, these 5" flowers are full, round, delicately ruffled and trimmed with obvious sparkling nuances, all finished in chaste alabaster white. Robust plants of outstanding balance and proportion boast strong erect scapes with symmetrical four and five-way branching. Combining two of the finest orchid pinks, ADVENT AND ASCENSION has been a standout from the start and has quickly emerged as a key parent. Very fertile either way, and Jeff Salter’s biased favorite of the 97 seedlings.
