Tropicals & Tender Perennials: Identification by foliage?, 0 by Alistair

Kell if that is the case with CG then that is probably what we have here and not Dr S. Almost all cvs that have been about for a while here have lost their corerect names and I have been trying to piece things together. I agree with you it is not a very attractive combination of gold flowers and that rather yellowy bright green of the leaves - though it happens to coincide with the Australian national colors so I am supposed to like it lol (and ew!).

Can Dr S and CG be distinguished by the teeth on the leaves: both have them pre-Y and one does and the other doesn't post-Y????? Being a botanist I get fixated on these details lol.

Nothing like the variety you guys have! I am trying to learn 'Brugs of the World' from pics, forum threads, literature etc.... No-one seems to have been really interested in them here until about 2002, though having set about gathering all that were here together in my collection, there in fact were quite a few lurking about.

I got the impression that P&C is or resembles a versicolor - with the narrowmost part of the corolla tube extending from the mouth of the calyx and that Maya has the calyx covering the narrowmost part of the corolla tube... At least that's where I have got to in trying to 'learn' these!

Here is a Bert leaf....
