GREEN-EYED LIZARD
28in, MID, 8.5in, top-branched, ca. 15 - 18 buds
per scape, NOCT, SEv to Ev, Soft sienna amber with green infusion and mahogany
dusting above deep, clear green throat.
A very unusual novelty: the very green throat
radiates into the pale amber yellow base colour of the flower. The flowers
are long, strap-segmented and curl back in a Cascade Form. The outer halves
of the tepals are dusted in burnt sienna, sometimes speckled to reveal an
irregular "lizard skin" pattern of pale amber.
Semi evergreen to evergreen foliage habits, it
grows well for us, but much better if we have had milder winters. Top-branched
scapes with ca. 15 buds, 18 -20 cm flowers. A Pinched and Curled to Variable
Crispata form with Nocturnally opening habits. Very Fragrant. (FOOLSCAP
