This is, in Mr Bliss' opinion, the finest of all the grand varieties of his Dominion race, and it is indeed of superlative merit. The enormous flowers are of the finest form, great substance and lasting quality. The circular arching standards nearly 3" broad light lavender to mauve stained light bronze at the base. The falls are straight hanging, smooth and flat 2⅛" broad, a very rich velvety purple in colour with red brown reticulations at the haft. The plant is an exceedingly good grower with stout branching spikes 3'6" [107cm] high. (Whitelegg/Orpington 1923)
