Phrag. Fox Valley Fireball

[e-spice]

A nice Fireball but not quite as good as it normally blooms. It's a small single growth division and it blooms better in the cooler weather.

.......and here's a flower (and hand) photo of one of Phrag. Fox Valley Fireball's parent's - Phrag. Rosalie Dixler 'Fox Valley' AM/AOS. I removed the flower and used the pollen to pollinate one of our Phrag. popowii/humboldtii stud plants. Should be interesting.......

Something pure about that red!

 

[abax]

Yes, a very pure crimson with a lovely shape...no orange
in that bloom at all.

Thanks all,

It's one of the rare Phrag. hybrids that doesn't lose its blood-red color when it blooms in the heat of summer.

Very nice.

I can only begin to imagine what a larger plant, under ideal culture, is capable of.

Thanks for posting.
