From Pacific Coast Hybridizers catalog, 1992: (Williamson 1988). $5.00. When first opened, the cream-yellow flowers have a distinctive oyster washing of fancy plicata markings on the falls and standards and ginger-brown plicata marks sanded at the hafts; however, as the flower ages, it undergoes a pronounced color change, becoming a rich cream with only the ginger-brown plicata marks remaining. (Pencil Sketch X Dixie Desert).
