Fritz and **** bud watch

Update 2

Hi,
7 flowers now out and Fritz is starting to open. Looks like Fritz will be the usual dusky pink I have in other phrags.
Sorry for the darkish photo.

Nice to see this MDC can hold two flowers per stem. Should be good when all the side branches open. Could be up to 14 out at once then,

Fritz is open

Hi,

Fritz S has finally opened. A first flowering seedling and nice little thing but the lateral petals are starting to reflex as many of them do.

Love those Fritz's, even with all their twisting around! I have a flavum Fritz in bloom now....not quite as full as yours. Thanks for posting!

Great display on the MDC, and the Fritz is a beauty, too.

More open and a question

Eleven flowers on MDC plus three buds.

Fritz is now fully open and the petals are quite ruffled.
The colour in more pink than the photos show.

Is this common in the cross?
Can the situation improve when the plant gets older?

Thanks,

David
