Blue Sprite / Ao Seishin is a naturally occurring cross of an unknown variety and the Kikyo Snowflakes. The blooms are 2 to 3 inches with mostly 5 petals, sometimes 6. The light white spokes combine with light blue speckles on many of the white picotee blooms. It is a heavy bloomer with intriguing gently violet blue blooms, and only grows about 8 to 12 ft in height.
