A funny thing happened along the road to pink -- pink and yellow blends. Not the usual ones of pinkish blush over yellow ground, but interspersed dots of pink and yellow pigments that show up under a magnifying glass, like the pixels on a computer screen. 

Standards are a soft blend of pink and yellow, blushed with pale pinkish lavender, held open by strong midribs to showcase the clear, bright lemon yellow style arms. Falls are lemon yellow, lightly blushed pinkish violet, with a dark burgundy spot surrounding a bright yellow-orange beard and several burgundy lines extending downward from it's tip. 

A ¼-bred from (Granted Wish x Sunrise In Glory) X Persian Smoke. The pod parent was introduced as Altogether Lovely.  Partially fertile both ways and appears to be a significant step toward combining tangerine pigments and aril characteristics. I coined the term "pixelated" to describe the pattern, but it was disallowed. "Pixilated", meaning slightly tipsy, comes close and won the Name Game for Samuel Norris in 1995. 

For show aficionados, its ASI code is OGB-.
