IMPUDENT ELF (McAllister, 1993) OGB Gene's Little Secret X Rose of Sharon. In an attempt to characterize its personality, one local wit dubbed this one "Little Pffft!" But I thought that "Impudent Elf" would be a much more euphonious, yet still accurate, moniker – and much more likely to win the Registrar's approval. It has a large red-violet spot that almost covers the inner half of its honeysuckle yellow falls, providing a contrast to the soft pinkish-lilac standards that is almost garish. Limited fertility. Has set pods to others of its line, but none of its offspring have been impressive.
