CHAMPAGNE CHARLIE - Tet, Mid late. 30 x 7, 15+ buds. Pod and pollen fertile. Very hardy in zone 6.
(Seedling X ALONE WITH MAUD)
CHAMPAIGN CHARLIE is a very light lavender with a slightly darker wash halo leading into a chartreuse throat. It is lightly ruffled, open and presents itself well on the scape. It blooms for a long season and is a bright spot in the garden. Light lavenders are among my favorites. CHAMPAIGN CHARLIE carries on the tradition of TUXEDO JUNCTION and ALONE WITH MAUD.
The name comes from an English music hall song . "Champaign Charlie is my name; Champaign drinkin' is my game. I'd sing it for you, but you wouldn't hear it.
