ROBE DE VELOURS

Mahogany red standards, slightly closed. Cream grounded falls with a precise burgundy red border, 6 to 7 mm wide. Marigold orange beards. Top class plicata !

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.

A tendency toward green : olive yellow standards with hues of purple toward the heart. Falls are a paler olive yellow. Lavender beards with greenish tips. Lovely shape, ruffled, freeflowering (7-9 buds on average) and vigorous.

Something delicate: as much for the modest size of its flowers as for its pastel colouring. Soft pink standards and white falls with a fine light violet border, plicata-style. Long thick, very visible coral beards. Numerous flowers (average of 10), branching out in candelabra-style.

Entirely new: large flowers with pale blue standards and greenish yellow falls. Orange beards. A very unusual contrast similar in style to the standard dwarf "Real Coquette". Very attractive and easy to place in mixed borders. Late and prolific flowering. (9 buds per stem).
