ALPENVIEW

Magnificent offspring of our champion "Ravissant". Totally pure white standards and large pinkish purple falls with a large white heart, contrasting against the orange-yellow beards. Moderate ruffles, excellent branching. Pure, crisp colours. A very decorative flower.

Very big flowers whose standards have a faint blue tinge on opening, quickly becoming pure white. Rounded, nearly horizontal falls, pure white with a wide bold blue-violet border (15 to 20 mm). Distinct, clearly visible, red beard. Robust standards and a balanced stalk (7 buds per stem). Moderately ruffled.

Standards white heavily veined and edged lemon; style arms lemon; falls bright white, slight lemon rim, yellow shoulders; beards chinese yellow, white at end; heavily laced; slight sweet fragrance.

Creamy white standards, chalky white fall centres lined grape and shading to light butterscotch and narrowly banded white. Tangerine beards, ends tipped white. Strong show stalks with up to 9 buds and nice ruffled form . (Johnson 2014)

Totally different from its sister Terre de Feu but very warm too. Dazzling golden yellow standards on yellow bronzed falls. The colour of the falls is deeper around the bronze beards. Sturdy flowers and good grower.
