MYTHOLOGY

This delight spreads its light brown-red standards above nearly horizontal garnet-red falls which boast exquisite lacy crimped edges. The glowing yellow beards seem lengthened by a 3 to 4 cm-long stripe running along the middle. These wonderful flowers are rather round and their stalks well branched.

Very large, soft and majestic flowers with white standards tinted a soft yellow at the base. Creamy white falls discreetly tinted in the same yellow tone. Golden yellow markings along the golden beards. On average 9-10 strong lemon yellow buds.

"Paul Black" and "Alpenview" are the proud parents of this astonishing inversed amoena and its majestic 15 cm by 15 cm flower which is dedicated to Villa Erba, residence of the famous Italian film-director, Luchino Visconti. The magnificent wisteria-blue standards are darker at the centre, whilst the large bluish-white falls are elegantly undulated with ruffles. The mandarin-coloured beards of this really vigorous and fragrant new variety have lighter tips.

Robust descendant of "Futuriste" and "World Premier". Very pale blue standards and strong indigo-blue falls, fairly discreet yellow beards. Enormous flowers enlivened by strong, ample ruffles. Flowers quite close to the main stem, a characteristic inherited from its parent, "World Premier".

A brilliant son of "Aurélie": With its white standards and wide, bright raspberry border on the falls, it is one of our favourites for 2015. With 4 stems and an average of 9 buds, this variety is a «must»!

Difficult to describe the colours hover between plain pink amaranthe and light raspberry red, becoming paler under the tangerine beards. Good-sized, wonderfully shaped flowers with ruffled edges. Exemplary stalks bearing 9 to 10 buds on average.
