Hybridizer’s Description: HEAVENLY ANGLE ICE is a very ruffled near white unusual form with sepals that twist and curl. Both the petals and sepals are ruffled. It has a nice green throat with up to 5 way branching and 27 bud count. Very strong rebloom, blooming till frost in the north. A perfect flower all day long, by noon it's pure white, nice till after dark. My most important white breeder, from line bred white breeding. Being purchased by many of the top hybridizers to convert. An outstanding garden cultivar. Easily fertile both ways, incredible kids.
