'Everest Blue' is a stunner all right!

Chris, I wouldn't expect allionii to be as easy as marginata but can't really say as I haven't tried. There used to be quite a nice little collection of allionii vars in NZ in the hands of a single person who then went off to live in Australia. What happened to the prims I don't know. I've only ever had a couple and have lost them both. Haven't seen one available for several years.

Good gracious Gail, that's quite a departure in colour.  Is the photo colour accurate?
