Double type; very large; midseason. A fine, smooth, tulip-like form, in early stages palest flesh-pink, becoming white in the center; excellent fragrance. Medium tall; vigorous growth; free-blooming. Good foliage. A fairly full flower with a crinkled hollow center, illumined with the glow from many stamens. Remarkable for its size and the elegant form of the outer petals. “Think this variety badly overrated.”—Fewkes.
