'Alpine Lake' - With respect to the hybridizer of this little lovely, this really isn't what AL is supposed to look like. It's supposed to have white petals with a light blue thumbprint on each of the falls. Those purple streaks and splashes aren't supposed to be there. They are a manifestation of the repeated freezes to which this poor baby was subjected during stalk development. I will sometimes get to see normal colored flowers toward the very end of its bloom season if temps warm up enough. |
