In bloom this afternoon, this flower is as pale as any we've seen; almost white with just a faint pink blush. Sorry for the photo quality. Photographing a flower where all segments approach white in color is most difficult (at least for me and my Canon Powershot.) I'm sure Dot could have done a better job. :)

Send it to me, Tom, and I'll give it a try. :evil:
Actually mine bloomed, but I've been too occupied with other things to take the time to photograph it, and now the bloom is gone. The first one did not open well, but the second flower looked pretty good. I'll have to wait until it blooms again to photograph it.
 
Unfortunately, we don't have any Phrag. andreettae seedlings or adult plants to sell at this time. This clone came originally from Ecuagenera years ago and I think you can still order one from them at a reasonable price. I have one compot of a selfing of this clone, but they are a year away from being large enough for individual pots.
 
I'd love to have a second generation plant that has that color. And it would look great next to that besseae 'green gold'!
 
Tom let me know when I can put a reserve on seedling as well. I don't mind the wait.
 
Very nice Tom.

Glad to hear you selfed it.

I look forward to raising it's progeny, should any make it across the border in a few years time.
