HYBRID TEA - CHRIS EVERT No, not a subtle color. In fact, it's a 'grand slam' as far as most eyeballs are concerned. Some might call it orange-yellow, others yellow-orange — but th e scarlet blush 'served' at the finish of the flower is 'game point'. The 'match' is completed by a well-behaved clean plant for these showy well-formed blossoms. Deep red new foliage and large green leaves put on the final 'top-spin'. You'll 'love' it. Better size in cool weather. Consistent color. Named after Christine Marie Evert, a former globally #1 ranked tennis player from the US.
