Beautiful. Lovely location as well. Reminds me of my childhood.
I have to grow these in my bathroom. Eastern/southeastern exposure and air conditioned in summer. They did not like the warm conditions in my grow room. I killed a division of the original of this, and a few others before I figured it out.
never give up when determined.You did it, Deborah. I can’t remember if this one is thought to be tetraploid/4N or not? What width do you measure on your flower.
It’s from Woodstream, seedling selfing of their awarded plant and to my knowledge is normal 2N ploidy. It’s really small, I think. 7cm NS. Its form is really nice, though. Hopefully will be larger on future blooms. Small plant.
