Prismatic (Brooks-BB, 2004)

2024 Update: There are extra fans.

 




This one was won in an auction from Mamalahlee on the Lily Auction!


Color: purple with lighter watermark and pencil band above green to gold throat

Parentage:
scape height > 33 in, (84 cm)
bloom size  6.25 in, (16 cm)

Crispate
ploidy  Diploid
foliage type  Dormant
bloom habit  Diurnal
seedling #  BBD101

8/2020 Update:I received enough fans in this auction that I split the fans and put them in slightly different places. One plant initially set pods, but aborted them. The other plant has several set pods. The pollen has been fertile on other plants. She is also diamond dusted!

2023: This plant has been prolific and gorgeous! I love the diamond dusting.

8/2020 Update:
From what I've been told, Northern Fancy shouldn't have this spotted look. It's insect damage I haven't seen any signs of bugs on anything else. Either way,  I like the water drop look. This flower has an amazing gold ruffle that glistens in the sun. The petals also shimmer. This flower is pod and pollen fertile.
