Georgia Gold Medal Winners
Upgraded for pure white flowers without blushing of the buds. Plant structure is more controlled compared to original White, yet it still has the signature draping. Similar to Pink and Red for overall vigour and drape. Flower timing is slightly earlier than Red by approximately 3 to 5 days.
