Phrag. Becky Srejma 'Fox Valley'

Speaking of "album-ish" Phrag. Hybrids, we registered this cross of (Hanne Popow x boisierianum) in 2002 and named it after my oldest daughter, Becky.

That's gorgeous, Tom. Do you have any of these for sale?

 

[Hera]

I really like the color. Good job.

 

[Kevin]

Nice. I love these kinds.

 

[JeanLux]

That's lovely Tom. Are they all that white in this cross?

This is one of the nicest phrags I've seen in a while.

 

[Cheyenne]

Very nice. I wish there was more breeding for white or whitish phrags.

 

[tomkalina]

Thanks all,

I have just two of these remaining and neither seems to be fertile. The seedlings we offered a few years back were all sold except for these two and we're keeping them for sentimental purposes. I think the next step in this breeding might be to breed Barbara LeAnn to a good boisierianum to get more color rather than less.

Quite nice! Probably the whitest Phrag I have seen.

Well, if you ever divide it...
It doesn't matter to me whether it's fertile or not since I'm not into breeding. I would just love to have that flower smiling at me in my greenhouse.

Hi Dot,

You are first on the list for a division. It may not be 'till the summer of 2013, but it will happen. Isn't this cooler weather great? My gh heater actually came on the last two mornings!

Thanks, Tom

Great! Thanks, Tom.
Yes, my greenhouse is sighing a sigh of relief. Normal is good!

I'm not usually attracted to Phrags, but this one is exceptional. I love the soft colors and the shape of the
bloom. Quite a tribute to daughter Becky!

 

[eaborne]

Very nice!

 

[Phrag-Plus]

Very nice! And thank's Tom for the larger photo!

That's another very white Phrag. It looks like it has more of a greenish undertone versus this plant.
