ERAs Elmseld
Hybrid of P. bowkeri x P. fulgidum – Eva Tingström, ERA Garden, Sweden.
Hayden
This plant is a seedling from ‘Flora Midnight’.
Whilst ‘Flora Midnight’ has very dark flowers, the flowers of this plant became very pale.
Perhaps because it has P. anethifolium back in its ancestors.
The buds have a purplish tone, and then the petals fade to an off-white colour as they age.
P. grandiflorum
Species in the section Glaucophyllum.
Today there are different plants with this name, but this one resembles the first illustrations made of the species.
