CALIFORNIA SALLY #207 aka Belle Vista, Jameson's and Bud's Sally. 5-5 1/2" pink rainbow with spicy fragrance with onion undertones. Long lasting inflorescence. Golden yellow centers. The pink fades to white giving a lighter effect. Recommended and prolific. Light creamy pink, large golden yellow center, moderate pink band on front outer edge, dark pink band on back outer edge, tendency to fade very high, long oval petals up turned inner edge, rounded tips, slight overlapping, , keeping quality very good. Blooms grow in huge clusters that produce a perfume that overrides cultivars that you thought, up to now, were overwhelming. California Sally was registered in 1999. Bud obtained this cutting in 1970. This variety could have been around since 1968. During that time, it was commonly called Bud's Sally in California and then when it spread to other states, it was called Bud's California Sally. It was registered later as California Sally. During that early period it was also sold as Bellevista and some knew it as Jameson's. Everybody that got it under those names shared it with those names and may not realize they have a California Sally. Easy/fast rooter, thick branching, fast grower, generous bloomer, hearty. 1/3 of the tips usually bloom. Smells like salsa.
