Initial Notes:

This was sent in error as 'Wizard's Return'; and although it is a nice SDB, I prefer Wizard's Return far more. It is a very healthy grower and has sent up three bloom stalks in its first ten months here. The following is from the AIS Check List Data Base: "(Allan Ensminger, R. 1993). Sdlg. 288-8. SDB 15" (40 cm) L. "S. uranium green (HCC 633); F. canary yellow; beards white. 85-13: (People Pleaser x 83-4: (280-4, Jillaroo sib, x (78-4 x 78-18, Limpid Pools sib))) X sib., Varigay 1994. HM 1996, AM 1998"

The AIS description describes the standards as "uranium green": In my terminology they are "a light yellow", although I really don't know what color "uranium green" is. The picture below pretty well sums it up.

And a semi-profile view with a small bug on the right fall.
