This is an example of a petal with blotchy colors--here they're (obviously) bright red and white.
The flowers almost never have a fragrance.
I don't recall the name of this one but I do know that we bought it from local growers, the Hardisons, in about 1989.
These are very big flowers, about as big as my hand.
Enjoy!

Wow, looks like a tie-dyed flower. Very cool! First time I have seen one of these.

Gorgeous. Mine are just not that big, but we have had a lot of cold and rain lately. And I neglect them shamefully, now that you mention it.
