Here is a picture of double forrestii and the second picture is what it looked like after opening. You can just see the smaller second underdeveloped flower sticking out on the left. I normally cut them off before they get to this stage but thought I'd let this one go a bit further just to get some photo's. It was sniped off two minutes later.

Great to see everyone's flowers - what a brilliant time of year!

I include a picture of some - supposedly - 'Surtsey' flowers. Its the ones at the back - one is a double header. They don't look too much like 'Surtsey' to me - very large and very Shantungesque!

can anyone enlighten me? I got the bulbs from Pottertons this year.
Apologies for the quality - they aren't staged too well.

Sorry about that folks I pushed some wrong buttons there in all my excitement - the previous piccie is just a general group of some of my collection - hopefully this time I'll send you a piccy of the questionable Surtsey!

Hans !
How do you do it to get all these multiples ????  Quite astonishing.

Jonathan,
Your P. surtsey could very well be the real thing - it surely doesn't look all that different from P. surtsey "Stephanie Rose".
The general picture of your collection looks quite impressive !!

Thanks for posting everyone !

Hi,

can anybody help me? a few pages back Paul Cumbleton mentioned that the pics of his new hybrids had been moved to another place. Where do I find it?

Many thanks.

I have a few of these which were a gift to me a few years ago, can anyone name it. Some have a much bigger long front lip which I will picture when open in a few days time.
