This if one from Eric last fall. The bloom is huge, very fragrant and has stayed recurved for 4 days now....today (day4), the ribs were a pale apricot. Sorry the pic's not clearer, but it's been cloudy all week and my camera gets cranky at times. Think it's a keeper, for me, at least.

Its so elegant....love it!
That's lovely, as is the view of your gardens beyond!
Thanks everyone! Now that you mention it Azalea, it does look like a ballerina skirt. Arlene, hoping Eric sees it too. If I am not mistaken, he said this one came from his frosted pink bed and did not bloom the first year. Wondering if it has bloomed for anyone else?

Jean, What a beautiful white. Love the shape.
JJ, you hit the nail on the head. That one is one of the only ones I ever named that I did not see bloom. It was also out of my frosty pink bed in which Frosty Pink was the mother. I could see that the versicolor traits were very strong in this one and all I can say is its a one of a kind and I have to admit it was the only one showing this strong of a versicolor nature making me believe that perhaps it got mixed up somehow. She was the most velvety out of that cross and hence, Frosted Velvet.
Beautiful brug:)
