Very beautiful and much needed during this NASTY winter :-))))

Sabrina,

A perfectly beautiful start to your season with a particularly gorgeous example of this flower, you started with the best!!

If you plan to do any pollinations in the near future, grab some of that pollen; on the right partner it's golden!!

Donna

Beautiful! This one is on my list for next year! Thanks for sharing and please share others that bloom too!

Thanks guys :) will absolutely share the others when they bloom

I am planning to save the pollen, and resisting the urge to put a apple blossom lookalike on this, I'm not sure it's rooting right, although the leaves look nice and healthy. I have exposure and (i think) monte carlo showing their tips as rebloomers, so they'll get some papilio pollen

Beautiful, Sabrina, thank you for sharing! This is a new bulb isn't it? I have to buy a new one next year too, mine doesn't want to rebloom...

Looking forward to seeing your other blooms! Good luck with pollination :-)

Anja

It's gorgeous! Nice and strong coloration!
