AZURE FLAME (Tompkins 1963) M. L. 40 in. ((Berta B. x My Happiness) x (Berta B. x Cliffs of Dover)). A huge flower of pale Azure or clear Baby Ribbon blue with a smooth red beard. Beautiful of form with very broad domed standards and wide petaled, broad hafted semi-flaring falls. Sleek of finish and heavily substanced, these excellently formed blooms are beautifully displayed on tall, well branched stalks. A real accent in a thinly populated color class. No. 58-148. $20.00.
