philippinense ‘Alford’ AM/AOS x Prince Edward of York

First bloom -- only two flowers, but striking in color, I think:

Beautiful colors and beautiful shape. I don't usually like this type of multifloral, but this one is a winner for me.
 
Very nice! Is this a new cross? Is it yours?

Kevin -- my plant but not my cross. I purchased it from Thanh Nguyen. I don't know where he got it from.

Tom, I agree -- I thought the petals would be longer. But I have to remember that this is a first bloom, it's blooming on the first growth!
 
wow. that dorsal is incredible. i wonder why it only had two flowers? with those parents it should have 4 minimum... maybe next time it will have more.. how bright are you growing it?
 
:clap: :clap: :drool: :drool: The cross sounded like a winner & indeed it is!
I wouldn't be discouraged/disappointed with a lower flower count on it's first blooming. :drool: :drool: :clap: :clap:
