Hello,

Thanks for you! I live in Hungary at zone 6-7, so I have to keep them indoor in winter.

Hi all ,

today I will share with you a picture of a new plant for me -I have received before some days from a nice plantfriend .
He made a cross between his Zeph. 'Cookie Cutter Moon' X  Zeph. 'Big Dude'
I was a bit surprised about the color -but he told me the is maybe a result of the big heat in this time ...his plants flower more with a blush at the tips....I will see next time !

The size of the flower is really extraordinary:
 7,5 cm  diameter of the flower
30,0 cm leght of the stem

enjoy

Superb flowers Cris, great to see Zeph season coming back in the northern hemisphere, Mr Fermi and his pals having been wallowing in Zephs earlier in the year! ;) ;)
Flowering on and off here are Zephyranthes flavissima and Zephyranthes labufarosea.
