This flower has a rich elegant look with thick, waxy petals that feel almost sculpted. The petals are deep burgandy to wine-purple, blending into soft blush pink and creamy white towards the edges giving each bloom a dramatic velvety gradient. The flowers are slightly curled and overlapping creating a rounded full shape. Blooms grow in tight clusters with darker unopened buds, large oval and leathery leaves with a bluish tinge. Flowers are luxurious with bold colour contrasts that feels exotic and refined. Magnificent
