This deep mauve lavender has suggestions of the wonderful blue colors of
Lake Tahoe. A marked gold braided edge sets off the bloom while a shadowed
yellow halo highlights a deep grass green throat. Great lavenders
are difficult to find. Many are muddy especially if they have a gold edge
or are soft flowers. TAHOE has wonderful size, color and substance and
was a visitor favorite this past season. Fertile both ways.
