Phrag Cleola = Phrag boissierianum X Phrag schlimii registered in 1891. An oldy but a goody. This is the first seedling to bloom of very few seedlings I got from the cross.

nice,is it real white

The flower is pretty close to the photo color, perhaps a little lighter. My camera tends to intensify the color a little so I have to adjust the color a little. It could be a little lighter, maybe a little less pink.
 
Very nice pc of history! Such a tuff cross to grow for me. It may have been the clone I had but just didn't want to "take off" and grow. It's probably true for the cross, not many seen.
 
Yay non-besseae hybrids! And yay you for bringing back a piece of history. Please make some sib crosses when you get the chance.

I agree!!:clap: These types of crosses seem to be hard to find. I'd love to have one.
