AB: LIGHTS OF ARABIA X DESERT EMBROIDERY

---

Sibling to one posted earlier this year. Nice pattern and color, but the
best feature of this sibling is also its worst. It bloomed last year and
had branching. It has the branching again this year. Some stalks have only
one, but several have two branches. That's good on an AB, I think. But as
the photo shows the spacing on the branching jams blooms together causing
blooms to bunch up. Fortunately the plant has strong stalks again this year
and the wind doesn't take them down. From a distance it does create a mass
effect for the blooms, but it blooms freely and there's hardly any chance to
see a bloom without interference from another one blooming next to it.
