HVH: "'Foxy Lady' blooms with a 6-8" multicolored flower that changes throughout the day. It opens in darker purple and pink colors with an orange edge. It then develops silver patches and the edge softens to a warm brown. The bush is nicely upright, well branched, and grows with medium vigor to medium size. 'Foxy Lady' is the result of an unusual cross of brown-flowered 'Montserrat' with a brown sport of 'Strobe.' The colors are actually closer to the original 'Strobe,' which was purple and pink.
This new cultivar is a bright attention getter that we enjoy a lot. Released from HVH in 2010."
