Breeder's notes:
Much better vigor than its mother. Will get some BS and defoliate some but shrugs it off by putting out new growth, leaves and buds. This is such a pretty purple, great bloom form and good architecture that I can overlook what BS shows up. Very fertile.

Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).
