Curt Hanson's Crintonic Garden Catalog said: AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT
95 L 26 SE
((PALACE OF LIGHTS:= (SPANISH LEMON / PRICELESS PEARL) x EGYPTIAN SPICE / DBD) x HEAVENLY TREASURE
Deeply indebted to the work of Brother Charles, AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT inherits the distinctive gold edge of both parents. These medium to large flowers are a very deep golden yellow blended with warm apricot tones accented by a small green heart. The form is flat, wide and rounded with broad petals delicately edged in ornate bubbles and fringe. The substance is very firm and flesh-like with a matte finish. The scapes are very stout and well branched. One of the last flowers to bloom in the garden, AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT is fertile both ways and should prove useful to those who care to join the fracas for the ultimate edge.
