Mickey,
Elsa Sass is a glaciata. A glaciata may be recognized if you remove one of
the falls (or standards for that matter) and no violet or purple veining
shows. There is simply the yellow or white of the flower (or pink, as pink
glaciatas do exist, I believe) all the way to the base of the segment. I
think the PBF of Elsa is strong enough that it will be present under all
circumstances at least to some degree.
Desert Song is a cream rather than an icy light yellow and is not a glaciata.
It does have the veining at the base of the segments. As I recall, it is does
not have PBF.
