Here is a Pinkepank hybrid that is blooming for me the first time this year, Lucy Pinkepank. All the photos of this hybrid show a very attractive flower and I have seen Paul Perakos' plant flowering in person. The flower is quite bright, nearly all red and it is huge. The parents are tibeticum and kentuckiense, the two species with the largest flowers and Lucy has inherited the good points of each - she is an easy grower like kentuckiense and very colorful like tibeticum. The plant is about the height of a typical tibeticum this year. Hopefully she will grow a bit taller in the next few years.
