‘Breakers’ (Sherwin) seems light years away from its L. henryi parentage.  A multitude of broad petaled, gently recurved 4-inch flowers open ivory white with a small deep green throat—blending into a wide lemony-gold flush along the midribs.  A carpet of short white-gold papillae nearly covers each petal.  Rich sable red pollen on the end of filaments extending well beyond the stigma add to the flowers’ graceful beauty.  20-plus blooms per stem with numerous secondary buds.  4 to 5 feet, mid-July thru mid-August.  (Limited Supply)
