Description
#400 Leela seedling 2004. Big, very fast growing white with huge pink-edged blooms. Pink edge on white petals, yellow eye. Underside shows a wider and stronger pink banding. The ‘Leela fold’ can be clearly seen on numerous blooms, even after they have shed and are lying on the ground. Inflorescences are huge, and cover the tree with flowers for months and months. Perfume reminds me of Nivea face cream.
