Arthur William Paul Lemoine, Cat. no. 140, X. (1898), “Thyrses grands, fleurs de bonne forme, couleur cocardeau, revers des lobes blancs, produisant un effet éclatant.” Möller’s Deutsch. Gärtn.-Zeit. XXI. 381 (1907). — Havemeyer in Gard. Mag. XXV. 233 (1917). Introduced in 1898 by the firm of V. Lemoine et fils, Nancy, France, and one of their productions.
Notes on plant in Arnold Arboretum (plant received from Holm Lea, Brookline, Mass., in November, 1920; no. 10,605 Arn. Arb.). Flowers double, small to medium in size; corolla-lobes pointed or rounded at apex, curling inward, unsymmetrical; tone dark to intermediate; color in bud Dahlia Carmine to Indian Lake (xxvi.); when expanded, the outer corolla Eupatorium Purple without, the inner corolla Pale Laelia Pink (XXXVIII.) without, both Dull Dark Purple (XXVI.) to Aconite Violet (XXXVII.) within, a solid color. Clusters long, interrupted, narrow; rhachis, pedicel and calyx tinged Hay’s Maroon (XIII.). Large leaves frequently appear at the base of the subdivisions of the inflorescence. The color of the buds is markedly different from that of the open flower; also the pale reverses of the inner corolla-lobes are a conspicuous contrast with the rest of the darker flower.
