Sonatini ID

10 years ago

Hi all ,

Do you know the name of this hippeastrum? I bought it in 2010 as 'Sonatini for the garden' in a lot, but I have no identity. This is a real mini.

    Kristy , they were sold in gardencenters in France ,with the name 'sonatini' , but colors were mixed and I had non name. This one was my favourite. I don't see such lots anymore.

    Donna , I added the micture with my hand espacially for Fred ! Sure your should flower , they are small but vigourous.I remember you talked about Blanca when I asked you by the past , I hope she could help.

    Thank you catsanhippies.

    My order arrived today!! When the mail wants to work, it really can!!

    The bulbs all look beautiful, I haven't inspected each one yet but they look good in the bags and most of them are quite large!!

    Hope the rest of you receive yours by Monday and that they arrive in the same great condition that mine did!!

    Thanks!!!

    Mine arrived yesterday too!!! I'm soooo excited :-)))) and I just spent the morning giving them a little clean up. I may soak them in a water/fungicide mix as a precaution, other than that they are absolutely beautiful. Again a great bit thanks to Ray :-)))))

    Top left is Red Rascal, top right is Ratatouille, bottom left is Orange Rascal and bottom right is Sweet Sixteen.

    Very Warm Regards and Thanks!!!

    it is complete! Both Sonatini and RC package from Friday. Except 4 bulbs, 3 of them need minor treatment because of rot (1 Sonatini, 2 RC) but poor Temptation is in a bad shape, 1/3rd removed atm, waiting how it goes. Major rot was hidden under dry crust

    Congratulations on a job neatly done! I hope soon they will spring forth with buds and new leaves. I can't wait to see their pictures.

    I planted about half of my Sonatinis but ran out of soil so this week we'll have to buy the ingredients for another batch.

    Donna☺☺
