| strongly recurved petals on this cultivar are a bright orange red, darkening along the margins. Petal bases up to the lower centers are silvery white flushed pink (probably temperature sensitivity). Petals not only recurve, but curl or fold as well. A magenta-pink stigma rides well above the anthers. Mature buds are orange with a pink tinge. |
