An early and beautiful deep, dark red of elegant form and loosely double. The form of the main and lateral flowers is similar to a wide and shapely water lily and on young plants shows an attractive mingling of golden anthers. As plants become older the blooms become more fully double and distinct in form. A deep rose red in color. Blooms at least three days earlier than Officinalis Rubra.
