Haven’t been posting much recently but thought this one was worth sharing.

Wonderful! I am guessing the lighter color is more accurate. Is that correct? Also is this a first time bloomer?

What are the parents? (bessae 'Rocket Town 4N x kovachii 'Drumlin Sensation')?

I love Phrag season.. those petals are so flat and wide. Fantastic flower

 

[shariea]

That is indeed a sumptuous flower

Jason, that's the most perfect FS I've ever seen! Very impressive for me since I'm
not a huge admirer of kovachii and crosses. Splendid!

This is really nice!! I’ve almost killed mine, but it seems to have a new leaf peaking up so maybe there’s hope.

Very nice...Beautiful plant and bloom.
My Fritz took a turn for the worse this past summer. It has bloomed reliably since I purchased it, recuperating now.

Spectacular! What are the parents?

 

[JasonG]

Thanks all. I don’t know the parents, I picked it up from Popow mid 2019.

As to color it is slightly lighter than the darker picture. Really a great deep raspberry. It is the darkest of any of the Fritz’s I have.

Absolutely marvelous!
I'm still waiting for mine to bloom...

+Popow's are select. Yay besseae hybrids! Thanks for sharing.

The shape is nice and round as well. Does it keep it's shape?

So far no flexing since it opened.
