not perfect, but really large

This is Bel Royal x kovachii, purchased several years ago as a seedling from HP Norton. I believe it has been named Perusian Royalty. The dorsal is usually puckered and the color is just OK, but the flower is big and the plant grows like a weed. I believe this is the third time it has bloomed for me.

Yay besseae hybrids! Its named after a region HP visited in Italy. I am a little worried about him since I haven't been able to contact the Nortons in quite a while.

Thank god I know metric.

I have seen some people thinking that centimeters are inches. I would not have believed it if I had not been there.

A great one!
I love the soft coloration also.

Big enough for a zip code.
I like the color and size.

Thank god I know metric.

So that flower is 18mm ?
I think kilometers are too short; when driving they pass too quickly to count, and looking at speed gauge it makes it look like you're going really fast when just poking along

I worked in a laboratory my entire career here in the US, so I am comfortable with both imperial and metric. I agree that imperial measurements are archaic, but they have a richness that I will miss. I mean who can't help but love furlongs and fortnights. These are so useful in today's world. Mike
