Apricot-buff with pinkish-orange highlights. Flower color varies with temperature; apricot tones are more prominent during cool weather, and rosy tones are seen more often in hotter weather. In most areas of the U.S. the blooms will transition from apricot shades to rosy shades as the flower ages. Absolutely one of our favorites, it will always hold a prominent position in our garden.
