As the faeries dance on Midsummer Day, the bride enters in her ivory gown trimmed with lace, glimmering with gold reflections from the sunshine.
The flower is ivory-lemon with a gold sunburst throat, very ruffled and recurved. Sometimes the ruffles show tentacles (as in the photo right). The well-formed flowers have good substance.
The flower was shaded for the photo above, where there are glints of polychrome. The photo below was taken in full sun, where the ivory-lemon color is seen.
A tall plant, top-branched, presenting a bouquet effect. The flowers open in the evening, and so are always open flat in the morning. Very fragrant. Two- to three-way branching, budcount 10-13. Admired by Dave Whalen. Rebloomed in 2020, though not so registered.
