I don't know of a photo extant, Laurie, but I can describe it for
you. DOTTED SWISS was a vivid plicata of violet-blue on white (the
registration data says blue on white) with a certain amount of
brownish tone especially in the haft area. I recall the beard being
dark, perhaps brownish infused violet. For its 1956 date it was a
pretty darned good flower. The pedigree included Wambaliska, Jake
and Flora Zenor, a tangerine-bearded bicolor of pink and violet,
making it particularly interesting genetically.
