Lavender-violet standards & white falls with delicate wisteria-blue veins, & lemon-yellow blotch. Flowers May-June. Height 55cm. Bulb size 8/9cm. (Bulb sizes"ed in centimetres refer to the circumference of bulbs. All bulbs are sourced from cultivated stocks.)

Nearly all, however, share the same beautiful & easily recognisable flower form
