From Fleur De Lis Gardens catalog, 1999: SILENT CIRCLE (Tompkins 99) ML 38 - 40" (Sterling Silver x Radiant Pride) X (Frostalot) x (Cascade Waters x Ave) x (Sheer Bliss). This is a Blue such as we've never had before. Huge, very heavily substanced and sleekly finished and of ultra broad flaring form, done in true Cornflower Blue. A faint Blue White area dominates the upper part of the falls and a half inch frosty edge to the petals make it appear as if the flower has a circle or halo of light around it. #93-85B. $40.00 |
