If there is -- I get one, too. I don't know how I missed this thread yesterday. And yes, I like the flower.

I do - sure wouldn't kick it out of my grow space. It's pretty.

It really is interesting.. Not what I would expected at all of that cross.. I thought it was (bellatulum x villosum)..

I tried to drag it out a little. Sorry. No consolation prizes for Allens or Erics. Heathers and Candaces are always welcome to a consolation prize. :evil:

Anyway, the plant came from Tom Kalina, Fox Valley. He didn't have many, and I'll be sure to ask for commission when all of you beat down his door for them. The flowers aren't really big (~2.5"), and the form is rolly, and the stem is weak (as the photo shows), but even my wife likes this one.

With some ironing it could look very nice. (Not so crazy about ruffled petal edges.) The color is very nice. I can't beleive this is concolor x barbigerum. Where does all that pink come from? Then again concolor x St Swithin is also pink... Weird.

The folage is very attractive and flower is charming. So happy I guessed wrong... the prize being what it is.

:rollhappy::rollhappy: He's a little stinker! I saw the blooming plant yesterday & started laughing & said you & Ernie shop at the same place, this is his guess the primary cross! He never mentioned it came from him!
Hmmm ........ I might be diverting the stampede, I don't remember seeing any sale plants.

:rollhappy:That could help! and a little starch! It has too much of a hang dog look for my liking.
