in summer. I just found this picture back.
It seems to me that this brug will become a little more darker colours growing outside.
x flava lila-rosa
This is slow? It looks like a large amount of stem growth to me. The flower and leaves look very strong. I think someone will have to give me one, so I will learn my lesson-the hard way! And the RV looks so nice too. Nice photos.
Dennis, you can have my plant..lol.
This plant is slow, small ( to my knees..)and one flower.
May be there is a missunderstanding about large..? smile.
Ludger, I love the color of this one, and it looks very delicate, like a ballerina
I like it Ludger. I also like your Fuschias. Are they the hardy variety? I have two hardy fuschias out in the yard. Ordered a few more for this season as well. They are suppose to be hardy to zone 6- we'll see.
Hi Dennis, you have a point! Although the Corolla is very similar, everything else about this plant leads me to believe that this is not the same hybrid as my Lila-Rose! The Leaves where the first things I noticed! Mine are Shaped almost identicle to an oak leaf in shape and size - Two large lobes at the sides and one in the middle! No seration! The corrola on mine also gets much narrower towards the Calyx! The calyx on my Lila-rose is also very small and very round and much darker in colour! My whole plant is much darker green and stems turn black when ripe!
Actually Bruno I was thinking the two RV's look different. I haven't seen a photo of your LR's leaves, but the flower does look different. Ludger's may be a younger flower because the corolla has not rolled like yours. I may be wrong but if there were two different LR's -even slightly they would have seperate names.
Dennis, I agree with you there! One RV looks like it has more Sang genes than the other! The corrolas of my LR look almost identicle to Ludger's, however i'm positive my L-R and the one in the photo above are not geneticly identicle as every other part of both plants are so phenotypicaly different, regardless of plant to plant variation! Also, In the past, cultivar name confusion has been common in Brugs so much so that anything's possible, but I appreciate your input!
Dennis, this is the motherplant of all three pictures, there is no confusion with the name.
Dr Preissel gave a unnamed pink flava to Hendrik Jan ( Dutch). I send a picture of this "motherplant". Hendrik Jan didnt feel to name it. He just took the name of the colour.
Lila=purple or lilac. rosa=pink.
Most brugs are a little changing in each garden,fertilizer,temps,soil,light and so on.
datdog, the fuchsias are not hardy,they will be inside during wintertime.
Ludger, that is very true, many species display different characteristics with different environments. Another good example is twisted trees up on the mountains. They are often the same species as the giant trees in the valleys.
We say: You meet the point at the head. Means: You are absolutely right.
