Penguin Party has a crisp, dramatic pattern that makes its playful name especially fitting. 34″ (86 cm), Midseason bloom. The standards are an exceptionally dark purple-black, complemented by matching inky purple-black style arms. The falls have bright white centers surrounded by a broad, heavily patterned purple-black plicata band, with fine markings extending inward toward the beard. The beards begin lemon yellow in the throat and finish deep blue, adding another unexpected touch of color. Spicy fragrance. (Thomas Johnson, 2010). Honorable Mention, 2012.
