Held on ramrod stiff stems, the gargantuan 7˝” x 5” flowers literally flaunt their colors. This flamboyant variegate has arched golden ochre standards and solid rich mahogany-red falls. 8 to 9 buds are displayed on extra sturdy three branched stems. Boldness in size, color and habit distinguish Supreme Sultan.
