This one is too cool. She is a pure white and is looking for angels in heaven! All her blooms are either straight up or mostly at a slight angle. It is so neat. The tendrils are good too. I have been calling her Angel.
Meet Mrs. Bert or maybe Berta. LOL
When I first went to the garden, I saw the top bloom standing straight up. It was perfection. 4 hours later I finally finished my work there, and went to take a picture of it. Cucumber beetles were coupling right on her blooms. They had marred her perfection. I went into a blind rage and squished them all.
How kewl is that!? Beautiful. What's the cross?

She is from my ribbon series. Last year, I had run out of tags so I color coded my pollinated blooms with colored ribbon. I used 3 colors, gold, silver and white. I just knew I would remember which was which, it was so obvious the day I did the pollinations. But part of suffering from M- ADD, is to always think you will remember and then immediately forgetting.
So this one is GL X White ribbon. But by the looks of her flowers, she has the RK gracefulness.
Very unique!!
Shes one that will confuse the newbies in the future when trying to explain the difference between brugs and dats, lol.
Love the leaves!
Beautiful white.

LOL. I wll try to fit it in my conversation today. What is the saying? You have to use a word 10 times to make it yours. In fact I have a great place to do it, a heavey hitter plant person wants some brugs to grow outside his shop. So I am going to cut him down a few 8 ft stalks from Old Yellow and some shorter ones from Butterfly so he can have pink and yellow trees to greet people. I will slide Caryophyllaceae in on a few times in our conversation. No doubt I will impress him. LOL. He makes me look a like an amateur plant person! Hey, isn't Butterfly caryophyllaceaeiforous?
