The petals are plump and broad, pure green in color, with 5-10 flowers per stem and good blooming performance. The flowers open flat and upright with great spirit, and the petal tips never curl upward, holding their form well. The entire flower resembles a flying cygnet, and when many flowers bloom together, they look like a formation of wild geese soaring skyward. Swan Su is a large-flowered pure variety, with blooms that rise well above the foliage and are very imposing! However, its leaf posture is not elegant enough!
