Phrag. Fox Valley Fireball 'Cinnamon Fire' AM/AOS

[tomkalina]

In bloom this morning in a sunny greenhouse. Summer temps in the mid to high 80 F range (30-32 C) tend to produce washed out colors in this and other red grexes. Winter blooming tends to be darker red with brown over-tones (hence the name 'Cinnamon Fire'). Horizontal Natural Spread is 9.7 cm and petal width is 2.7 cm - slightly small in HNS, but with slightly wider petal width than the awarded blooming. We'll be adding a two growth division of this plant to our website sometime next week.

Awesome bloom. Impressive color given the summer heat.

Yay besseae hybrids! I'm sure it's cooler there than those little triangular eaves at Ackerman's!!!

You mean Hausermann's? Don't know Ackermann's......but yes, it's cooler in my greenhouse than it was when I was growing at Hauserman's.

I remember the place, but as I get older, names, not so much.
