Two mormodes

SVO 6878
Morm. New Hybrid (Morm. Midnight Hooker 'Hot Lips' x Morm. Mark Mills 'Hot Lips')

First blooming, 9 flowers in a 3” pot. The outcome of this cross has certainly surprised me, not a single dark red flower out of the 6 or so I’ve seen posted! Ah well. This is nice. The flowers open with a yellow background that fades to a nice creamy white after a day or so. Scent is nice, spicy citrus





Mormodes rolfeana

This one had a short growing season, recovering from a Hemisphere shift. But the flowers are dark and large, holding two pods now

Very nice! Are they fragrant?

Extremely! The hybrid smells of spice and citrus, the rolfeana is an indescribably sweet cherry with a touch of menthol
