Schreiner's catalog says:
Feature Attraction's rounded 6" x 4" flowers are graced with exquisite
frills and lacing. Its color is a pleasantly cool lavender-grape shade.
The center of each fall is highlighted by a clean white beard and signal
spot. Sturdy ramrod-stiff stems produce 8-9 buds. 1994 Presidents Cup
AIS National.
I would say the color is "diluted grape coolaide" S&F highly laced.
Edges of the lace seem to have a intermittent white rim (very narrow)
Very nice
