With help from Kevin Walek, and his love of the Moody Blues, a perfect name for this new beauty was found!  Indeed, it was tough for me to capture the feeling of where the viewing of this sedate and wonderful flower was taking me... as if the cool lavender and stellar green to white throat were carrying me off to some magical dreamland.  For sure, a perfect name... thanks Kevin!

This flower contains a gorgeous pastel lavender eyewash, that in late day (or warm temps) becomes a sky blue... fabulous against the pastel pink self.  There are actually 4 color bands beyond the wax green throat... yellow, red, slate lavender, and then purple.  Happily, the wash spills quite heartily out onto the inner petal edges. 

What's even more fulfilling for me where this beautiful dreamer is concerned, is that this whole package is presented on formidable scapes (second photo shows 4 lateral branches that also branch themselves, plus the terminal "Y"... with recurrent rebloom against my forearm!) ... atop dormant and heavy plant habit. Registered at 27", but as you can see in the third photo, can easily reach 36-38" in good conditions.  Enough to take a northern gardener looking for distinction, into never-never land... no doubt!
