Wonderful colour and form to the flower... and enhanced by the purple in the background, which makes the red and green just sing out  8) I really like  all these colours together.

Dear Hans,it looks like there is a problem with this species: the name is not accepted in IPNI nor in the Checklist of Monocots!

Maggi: since we have the actual Premier we have to eat something worse!

Phaedranassa cinerea, it is pollinated by humming birds.

Alberto, where do you keep her? Directly in the garden? Forst-free?

Sorry if it's a silly question, but I like her a lot  ::) :P

May I ask also where in Italy do you live?

Mad, I live in the North of Italy, nor far from you (for not Italians, Ferrara is not far from you!). Of course I grow it inside, here is too much cold!
I'll send you a private message in Italian.
All the best
Alberto
