Perdita has very light, yellow/apricot blooms that fade quickly to white. The blooms are cupped, opening into a rosette and are fragrant. The foliage is a dark dull green.

Perdita was planted on her own roots in the spring of 1995. She amazed me with the size of her first bloom (4 inches across on a small plant). She shows good vigor.

By 1997, I can see that Perdita is going to stay rather small - somewhere around 3 feet tall.
