Have shown this one before. Unfortunate color break on one petal.
NS = 12 cm
DW = 7.5 cm
PW = 5.4 cm

I remember this guy. The break, although there doesn't take away from the flower in a strong way.
Always nice to see.
 
I would not have even noticed that color breal if you hadn't mentioned it. Its great!
 
Yeah, that break ruins it. Better get it out of your collection and send it to me.

The unfortunate part is that this is its best overall bloom. Upon reviewing the photos of previous blooms, the color break is not present. According to Harold Koopowitz, color breaks are fairly common in Brachy x complex crosses, but are not necessarily present on all blooms.
