Hi, Saw a post from 2010 about this AV asking about the color as the sample was different from the FC2 photo. I grow this one. It blooms consistent with the photo on the LLG website. Wanted to redeem the reputation of this hybrid, especially as it is an older one from Sydney Sorano. Could be, the person received a mislabeled AV if bought from a source other than LLG. The color is orchid & purple, sometimes shaded with white and a bit of green. Blooms are double. Foliage is bright green. Propagates very easily & tends to sucker. Vigorous, fast grower. Joanne
