    HVH: "'Blushing Maiden' is a heavily textured 7-9" delicate pink, yellow, and white well-formed single, with an amber edge and white spotting in warmer weather. The bush is strong, upright and of average height. The parents of this cross, Rainbow Christie and Gerald Derr, are two well-known and popular hybrids that have passed on some of their best traits to this worthy offspring. The many different looks of 'Blushing Maiden' seem to be almost endless, but they are always soft and beautiful. Released from HVH in 2006."
