(Fifi X Ernest Hetherington) #2

[GaryCAZ]

The second best one. Much more compact inflorescence and more of a caramel color that resists Spring fading. Bulbs quite small,at least in a gallon pot.

All struck speechless by this flower?? I had several people try to buy it today, evidently they were blind to the seed pods on the second inflorescence...... I would have expected the Fifi 'Harry' 4n to dilute the color more but the EH has come through very strongly in color.

[Albert Nakaji]

Does the color stay the same over the life of the flower?

[Gary S]

Yes Andy, very earthly colours - reminds me of the Aussie outback a lot, how big is the flower, thanks

Cheers

About 3' diameter so an intermediate. This one has held its color well, the third best one is a cut flower type, taller stem, and it is now a honey color. The one I am doing a keeping test on was cut March 12 and 18 days later is still fresh as a daisy. My wife likes its color a lot and she is very picky about Cyms!

[Gary S]

Than she has good taste in colours then, I also like the sound of its keeping ability also.
