[HOOD COLLEGE X KATY'S BLUE]
40 EM 6 DOR, 4 way branching 30 buds, fertile both ways.  Star form

This unique flower has a STAR form that is very elegant in the garden.  The color is an unusual light bengal rose, diamond dusted with a lavender-blue glaze and a huge watermark on the petals.  Throat color is lemon-chartreuse.  An excellent parent for clarifying muddy colors.  Very sturdy scapes and a good grower -- beautiful, clean foliage.
