A vigorous herbaceous bulbous perennial which rises in early spring, the leaves first, followed quickly by the flowers. The leaves are large and strap shaped, pale glossy green and marbled although faintly with brown. Flower are a pale creamy-yellow held on rigid stems with up to four per stem. Each stem is up to 40cms high. Flower petals are slightly reflexed. This is a fairly complex hybrid which introduces a nice apricot colour into the flower as it ages which isn't seen on any other hybrid.
