The color is not as saturated as the image suggests, but the color combination is a very etherial mix that grabs just about everyone who sees it.  Sometimes polys and is very pod fertile.

New to the garden in '08, it was well worth the wait to see it bloom.  Consistently polys, pod and very pollen fertile!

(Bawden, 2006)  Height 26", bloom 6.5", season MLa, Dormant, Diploid, 15 buds, 3 branches, Polymerous 30%,  Pale peach with rubbed brown red eye above gold green throat. (sdlg × unknown)

This plant has increased so well, it needs to be lifted and divided.  Polys more often than 30% in my garden and blooms more mid-season than MLa.

This plant makes small fans in my garden, but the blooms are awesome.  Pod fertile, but no pods set this year.

Price is for triple fan+.

This is one of the last Lambert's registered.  It does have the tendency to poly, but not often enough to classify it as such.  I have set pods on it before this year.  I'm hoping to bring those poly genes out with higher percentage cultivars.
