I'm thinking its Phrag. April fools...

 

[Gcroz]

Looks like Phrag. Cardinale to me

 

[goldenrose]

I'm thinking as cute as can be!
Do I dare ask? Is this the unnamed phrag for the auction?

 

[keithrs]

Yes it is....

 

[keithrs]

So, Phrag schlimii v. wilcox, Phrag. april fool, and Phrag. Cardinale all look the same to me....

This what it looks like about a week after it opens... SD Zoo list this as a Phrag. schlimii v. wilcox

 

[phrag guy]

looks like Cardinal

 

[Erythrone]

Looks like Cardinale

and Phrag schlimii 'Wilcox' is not a true shlimii but a Cardinale

I would agree that it not a true schlimii. I have one and the growth habit and flowers are much too different.

So, technically I can call ether a schlimii v. wilcox or a cardinal 'wilcox' since there both awarded plants?

I'm also seeing listed as Phrag. schlimii v. Cardinale 'Wilcox'

 

[Erythrone]

IMO you should called it only Cardinale....

It is not a good idea to call it Cardinale 'Wilcox' since many clones (divisions) are similar!

Here is a Cardinale clone I grow since a few years. It is called 'Lisaa'

 

[NYEric]

Yep, Cardinale. BTW, if you find a Phrag April Fool hold on to it.

 

[keithrs]

Phrag. cardinale is then.....

Thanks for your guys help..... Much appreciated!!!!

It's not schlimii. Don't call it schlimii at all. Perpetuating a stupid mistake made by a bunch of judges is not something that you should want to do. Call it Cardinale because that's what it is. But, you don't know that it's the 'Wilcox' clone since it came without a name tag. So, ethically, you can't put the 'Wilcox' clonal name on it.

EDIT: I posted my comments from page #1. Now, I've read on page #2 that others have said pretty much the same thing.

BTW: Erythrone, there's an "e" on the end of the name....it's Cardinale, not Cardinal.
