Congratulations! A very nice looking bloom with the added bonus of great fragrance. Ticks at least two of the boxes right off!
Looking forward to learning of its development – health, architecture, rebloom, ease of propagation, etc. (Any idea of the mauves in proximity? I wouldn’t necessarily rule out a more unusually colored daddy.)

Thank you for your suggestion, but I have selected mixed pollen pollination for some flowers, and there is no record. This is a beautiful flower selected from some plants of the same combination

Wow. Gorgeous! And I absolutely love the fragrance of Distant Drums, so don’t fault it for that.

Really Beautiful! Congratulations!

I looked up the lineage of Distant Drums expecting to find Silver Shadows in its’ ancestry because of the anise/myrrh fragrance. Not the case. I was expecting that because Silver Shadows has always had that scent for me, even though HMF lists a strong citrus scent.

I’m excited to see the rest of the story, as Phillip outlined.

Stunning. Just stunning. Congratulations!
