Comments

Douglas Blanchard made this cross probably November 1948 and John Blanchard registered the flower. The pollen parent was probably ‘Tarlatan’ or a sister seedling. It was white, similar to ‘Tarlatan’. The seed parent is N. romieuxii ‘Yellow Form’.

Origin of Name

Part of Blanchard’s series ‘Fabric Group’.
