Yellow blend Floribunda. Registration name: Little Darling
Bloom:
Yellow blend. Spice fragrance. 27 petals. Average diameter 2.5". Blooms in flushes throughout the season.

Notes:
Among [Ralph Moore's] greatest discoveries was that the 1956 Floribunda 'Little Darling' was a great producer of miniatures, and the line has been followed by breeders ever since.
