Received January 5, 2020. Seedling No: ND. Parentage: from a controlled cross, but record lost. First bloomed 2008, first propagated 2010. SINGLE with 12-18 petals, one bloom per stem. Warm peachy pink guard petals, the pink fading out towards the edges to leave a light creamy-yellow border. Inner petals tend towards buffy yellow. As flower matures in the garden the colors fade out. Petals rounded, cupped, the edges evenly crenulated, at times split by a narrow notch. Average of 3 carpels, medium green, moderately hairy, the hairs white. Stigmas a muted red with normal anatomy. Well-developed white staminodal disc. Pollen-bearing stamens, filaments yellow. Produces large seeds. No fragrance. Early/Midseason bloom period. Early foliage green with red blush to the stems. Foliage turns amber to yellow in the fall.
