Below are some pictures of our Phrag. Scarlet O'Hara that got an AM. I think the judges liked it for its saturated red color.

A beauty! By the way, Scarlet should be spelled Scarlett.

Very nice flower! Robert, do you find that this cross is a bit brighter red than Jason Fischer?
I'm sure there is some color variation from bright red to darker reds as there is in Jason Fischer also. I haven't seen a red orange color similar to besseae in such crosses yet.........

Interesting comment.....It is registered with one "T", referring to the color Scarlet more than the movie character. HP Norton named this one.

To me this flower looked more like a true red, and more intense red compared to a Jason Fischer which is more orange red, but within a batch of Scarlet O'Hara's there is probably more variation in color compared to a batch of Jason Fischer's.
Below is a Jason Fischer and the Scarlet O'Hara side by side for comparison (It is hard to capture the exact red color, but in person the Scarlet O'Hara looks a little darker compared to the Jason Fischer):

I had seen a Fox Valley clone of this cross, it had a much rounder flower, rounder petals and rounder dorsal. Interesting that these are favoring the more traditional besseae / Jason Fisher shape. Lovely.

Except for one Jason Fischer that was at the last GNYOS show, all the Scarlet O'hara's I've seen have been darker. Yay besseae hybrids!

What a beautiful red! I am a bit surprised that the judges weren't swayed by the flawed pouch.
