Hi
So long sotry short this plant came from the EYOF, to Ratcliffe to then to this other Nursery then to me.
I was buy Phrag Jersey cant remeber the cultivar name but I got this one in stead.
As you can see from the lable its called Phrag beaseae 'Firestarter'. I understand that this cross would be Phrag Jersey, and this could be an old lable. But going on Kew Monocot List I have found that the Phrag dalessandroi is back to being a sub species of besseae. Yet the new Phrag but has it as a sperate species :rollhappy:
The RHS Data base reconise the hybrid with sperate species.
So what is this plant ment to be called these days, I do get fed up of the constant name changes, but understand why.
