Double type; large; midseason. Wide, cupped guard-petals of light flesh-pink paling to cream-white; collar composed of narrow petals of same color bearing anthers on their sides mixed with a few light yellow petaloids; crown broad and funnel-like, with a cupped center full of yellowish petaloids surrounded by a band of broader petals lightly edged with red; rich, spicy perfume. Medium height; floriferous; strong stems. Good foliage. A good flower but would be better if the collar were not so ragged; possibly it requires well-established plants to produce blooms of best form.
