InfoPink flower scapes and buds.
'Marrakech' is a small gold with a wonderful compliment of white wax. The backs are attractively coated with white, which is pretty rare in a gold, and the ruffling is top-notch. This is a really pretty little plant on its own, but wait until you see what happens when it gets ready to flower! As if the pale dusty yellow of the leaves weren't enough, out comes a pale dusty pink scape that is the perfect color compliment to the plant. This one gets a big "A+" for color and form.
This plant won a Best of Section in the First Look Competition.
