Phrag. schlimii?

[tcosta]

Hi all. Finally got my Phrag. schlimii’EYOF’ x self to flower…..not what I expected.

is this within the expected range of variability for schlimii or is it something else? Thoughts….thanks in advance.

I think you flowered a hybrid. Perhaps a sedenii backcross.....

 

[monocotman]

I agree. It’s a hybrid of schlimii,

GOOD for you. The flower looks a bit different than the two schlimii I have, but it's
lovely and perhaps a bit darker pouch.

 

[NYEric]

It's a Phrag. Sedenii; definitely a hybrid.
Awarded Phrag. schlimiis 'Wilcox', 'Birchwood;' , etc., are thought to really be Phrag. Cardinale.

Are you absolutely sure Eric? "thought" by whom?

 

[abax]

tcosta, is there a fragrance?

 

[Phrag-Plus]

Definitely not a schlimii, if the originator can’t give you the correct parentage better put schlimii hybrids on the tag. Otherwise it is just a guessing game…

 

[NYEric]

Are you absolutely sure Eric? "thought" by whom?

by the people who recognize the awarded plants are obviously hybrids,

 

[monocotman]

I agree with Eric!

 

[tcosta]

Been confirmed by vendor that the plant is mislabelled and probably a Sedeneii. Thanks everyone…you were spot on.

I bow to superior knowledge Eric.
