Same flower just different background
Phrag Anthony Omeis (i am pretty sure). My 3 year old dropped the box with this an another plant in it on our way to the car. It will be in bloom soon so i'll be able to compare.

Lovely little flower. Has it retained the fragrance of the schlimii parent? Please explain the "mini"reference please.
My two schlimii can never be called small.


Mini is in reference to the size of the plant, mostly brought down by the fischeri influence. I can take a picture of the whole plant and post but this is blooming on a plant that is around 4" tall and 6" wide and shouldn't get much bigger only denser. I grow under lights but you could put a bunch of these in a window sill with ease.

Where did you get your hands on such a plant?

His first post said from Woodstream. They apparently still have some for sale:

NEW! WSO 4603 Anthony Omeis (Spot On 'Rose Revolution' AM/AOS x Pink Panther 'Tony') A dream cross for miniature/compact plants with deep red to pink flowers with very dark red-pink pouches. Should look like miniature Jason Fischers!!
2.5" pots 4-5" ls seedlings $30

They still had a number of these smaller hybrids at their open house. Bill and Lynn have been working on getting some high quality mini's on the market and they have done just that. Check them out they have a a couple of crosses available that should be smaller.
