A stunning Red Pearls Hans.

Here a few more in flower. No. 3 has a particularly good sparkling effect. #1 simlar to another posted.

Interestingly one flower stem upon emergence snapped almost all the way through. Still it soldiered on and has now extended fully, the flower is about to open.

Thank you John  :D

Do you know this names ?
I have never heard before from "Red Pearls" and "Sophie" ...
from "Vesta" I have read something in the web ..

Exist maybe a list with all cultivars ?

Your plants are very pretty - do you grow it the whole year in greenhouse ?

No these names are not familiar Hans.  I googled Red Pearls, Red Pearl, Rode Parel, Rode Parels, Rote Perle, Rote Perlen, Perle Rouge and Perles Rouges to no avail.  Sophie may be Sohpia but no hits.  Do you know the source(s)?

You could contact Nick at Exbury. If you need his email address drop me a pm.  He writes a fine letter in response to queries!

Nicole - Thanks but I take no credit - for that you must blame the hybridizer  ;); there is a very dark purple hopefully yet to flower.

johnw - +18c and no frost yet.
