Cortusina – a cross likely of P. gibbosum and P. cortusifolium.
A seedling of P. lobatum from R.H. Jenkins collection. It has been suggested it is hybrid P. lobatum x P. fulgidum, or more probably P. lobatum x ‘Ardens’.
From ca. 1827. Described by Robert Sweet in 1930.
Nightscented flowers, but the scent is not that strong.
‘Ardens’ is an old cultivar, a cross between P. fulgidum and P. lobatum, introduced in 1817. It was hybridised by Lee, Hammersmith UK, 1810.
