References:

From Samuel Berry catalog, 1927: CANYON MISTS (1926). A very light mauve self, quite similar in color effect to Mlle. Schwartz, but has a longer season and does not fade out seriously in bright sun. With us it is a more satisfactory grower and more floriferous than Mother-of-Pearl. A seedling of Caterina and very effective in mass where pale coloring is desired. Especially recommended for gardens where Mlle. Schwartz proves unsatisfactory. 3 to 1/2 ft. $4.00.
From Cordon Bleu catalog, 1977: CANYON MISTS (Berry '26) A very light mauve self; does not fade out seriously in bright sun. 3-3½ ft. $1.00.
