From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2009: BIT OF GILT (Black 09) SDB Midseason-Late 15” (38cm). Don't worry, you can truly enjoy this Bit Of Gilt. We've been experiencing a rapid development of gilt gold rims and bands in tall beardeds and now it begins to evolve in SDBs. It is an unbelievably exciting avenue to explore. Super ruffled standards are bubblegum purple with a small area of white plicata marking over lower quarter and decorated with variable, glittering gilt gold edges. Palest pink white falls have wide bubblegum purple plicata bands with brown plum hafts and short veins on each side of orange to violet white beards. Exciting parent. Give it a try. Sdlg. N271A: Stormy Circle X Bamboozle. $18.00.
