Description
Mardi Gras #226 Thornton's 3" orange and pink rainbow with peach fragrance is one of my favorites as far as smell and colors. The fragrance of tutti frutti / peachy. The color when it first opens is very rainbow sherbet. Fades to white around the edges with the orange/red band in the middle. Compact growth and nice fragrance. Orange; petal wide, rounded, ruffled, pointed tip, highly overlapping, red bands on front and back; heavy texture. Nice sweet /spicy perfume. Orange, red bands on front and back, wide rounded petals, pointed tips, high overlapping, heavy texture, 3", keeping quality excellent. Fused mass of blended pastels that radiate a soft orange-yellow-pinkish blend. The fragrance is sweet and peachy and growth is compact. Elizabeth Thornton seedling and one of her most showy trees.

Would love to give it a 5 but we had two hurricanes through here in just a few weeks and they took it and look good. I think that if the storms had not messed with them the way it did they would be stellar looking 5's
