"Miss Ackland's No 1A Special Pink T/HT". The colour varies from the flesh, tinged with pale pink seen here, through to quite intense shades of pink. Petal number varies with temperature and season. The blooms tend to have a little hollow cabbage of petals in the centre that open out to reveal yellow stamens.
