Opposites Attract 

(McAllister, 1995)

Pale grey standards have a violet cast on opening. Buttercup yellow falls have a large area of intense reddish-brown veining surrounding the tip of the bushy orange beard.  

A novelty that was introduced because of its popularity with garden visitors. Sometimes it's quite clear, sometimes splashed with violets and browns – two diametrically opposed images, yet always striking and attractive in either form.

A fully fertile halfbred from Welcome Reward X Esther, the Queen. It has a strong, but essentially unexplored, potential for pink offspring. (Too many seeds given away!)  

For show aficionados, its ASI code is OGB.
