References:

From Walter Marx Gardens catalog 1955: TANTALIZER (Marx 1952). Each 1.00. A fascinating and bizarre little oncobred resulting from a dwarf yellow seedling crossed with the Regelio-cyclus hybrid, Hera. The entire ground color is near buff yellow with maroon purple stripes. The color pattern is quite similar to our little Chipmunk, a denizen of nearby woods. Flowers are of rounded form with slightly elongated falls. A profusion of flowers on slender 10 inch stems. Very vigorous and blooms with the latest dwarfs. Dwarf oncobred.
