Description: Heavily streaked petals make for a fun visual bonanza. Kirinmaru is perhaps one of the most heavily streaked in this class and is set apart from 'Candy Stripe' in that the streaking extends to all parts of the flower where as Candy Stipe is only striped on outer petals. Rare, and many have been known to receive the wrong plant when ordering Kirinmaru. This, however, is the real deal. Absolutely requires staking as stem strength is poor.
