HVH: "Ivory and soft lavender are the unusual colors of this well formed 6-8" single flower. Solar Eclipse's flower is perfectly flat and the contrast between darkness and light rather reminiscent of a solar eclipse.
The bush is upright, compact and of medium height. Solar Eclipse is somewhat tolerant of cooler temperatures, but not of freezing. It is the offspring of Topaz Glory and Fifth Dimension. New from HVH in 2006."
