Mother and daughter: Sedenii + Cardinale

[tenman]

Not the best blooming of this old, old (80 years old? more? I've had it over 40 years and it was a division of a very old plant then) Sedenii, but blooming next to it's offspring hybrid, Cardinale (Sedenii x schlimii) makes a lovely sight! [somehow the post ended up in paphs, reposting here but apparently am unable to delete that one]

I think the blooming is fantastic and the best.
These are 2 of my favorite.
Your Sedenii is a great shape and size. Mine never look as good.
My Cardinale ‘Wilcox’ is in flower and has been in bloom since September.
