Thank you for sharing that!!! - is is very beautiful and very well photographed. I have a terrible weakness for true blue flowers - some years ago, I even had a "blue garden" - nothing but blue plants/flowers, so this news is very exciting to me.

Thanks Jose for the info. I've included the parentage on the tag. I have seen identical plants being offered at various vendors' and assume that they must be mericlones. BTW this is very free-flowering, flowering even from the old p-bulbs.
