Clearview David

A cool, elegant formal decorative from the Clearview breeding program in Washington State. The blooms are a blend of lavender and lilac that lightens toward white, so each flower has a soft luminous quality rather than a single flat colour. Petals are neatly arranged in the symmetrical, layered pattern that defines the form, and the blooms run a generous four to six inches. It is a lavender that reads as fresh rather than dusty.

Plants reach around four feet and carry the blooms on good straight stems, with the vigour expected of a show quality decorative. Lavender is one of the most asked for colours in late summer wedding work, and this one pairs beautifully with white, blush, silver foliage and deeper purples. It suits growers who want a dependable cool toned variety with real presence in the bucket.
