The ground color is light rose pink. The standards are veined a violet pink on rose pink. The falls have a distinct violet banding on a clean rose pink ground. This is a very ruffled, pleasing and unusual flower. The beard is a persimmon orange. It is in effect a pink plicata on a pink ground. #4-8A. Gibson's Iris Gardens.
