Here is a great new seedling hybridized by Mary H. It has an extremely nice orange color and the ruffled blooms are unique. It is on it's second year and has been true to color, shape, size, and form for every flush. I think it deserves a name. Any ideas??

She is absolutely beatifull if it were mine I would name her Brittany for my Granddaughter, but for her color I would name her SUNSET, and if you have seeds or cutting to spare I would love just one.
Doris
Love the color! I'm with Doris - if you ever do any trimming I'd love a cutting. That citrus orange reminds me of orange sherbet. LOL Drawing a blank for a name right now.
Sharon
That is a gorgeous color. "BRANDY"
It's beautiful, Jeremiah. You and Mary did a great job. Congrats to both of you.
Thanks for sharing Jeremiah. Tonny's reply made me laugh.
Nice plant Jay. How about: Orange Juice, Big Sister, Ooh La La, or Ethereal?
BTW, I'm growing some of your seed, Creamsicle x (Rothkirk x Pink Beauty). Just sprouted yesterday. Thanks!
With a Butterfly parent and such a lovely orange, how bout "Monarch" as in both regal and the butterfly.

Jeremiah, It is really lovely, I am a sucker for the oranges. I like tombaak's suggestion for a name.
I am also growing out some of your seeds this summer. Just moved them to gallon sized pots today.
Patricia
It is so pretty.
J_Vino I don't have any of your seeds. (hint hint)
Yes a lovely orange. Orange is my favorite flower colour of all. I sure wouldn't paint my house that colour, but in a flower, it is just amazing!
Peaches & Dreams.... yummy color. Elaine
It looks good enough to eat, so how about Mango Slices?
Ray
I LOVE the name "MONARCH" for this!
It just fits!
Gita
Great color. Congrats to you both.
I live the color. Its a beautiful hybrid.
Totally gorgeous color!
wow...I've not tried brugs but pictures like that make me want to!
Monarch or Mango sound good to me:)
J- Vino's Sunrise
Beautiful color!
Congratulations Jeremiah and Mary! Beautiful color and shape. I vote for "Monarch", reflecting not only it's known parentage, but also its beautiful color.

Hmmmmmm I think you should trial her in Hawaii, don't you?....:>)))))
I like Monarch because she is so elegantly stunning. I thought of GRACE as in GRACIOUS. TANGERINE? HAYDON (one of the best Mangos grown)?
Whatever her name is...it won't do her beauty justice!!!
Probably futile, but I would love to snivel and beg for a cutting...:~)
Carol
I was also thinking Monarch! Perfect name, it fits!
Pretty color, I do like the Orange ones!
Bj
That may be the best orange I have seen. All the names sound great too!
CONGRATULATIONS!
I've looked a few times at this one, and I also like the name Monarch. All of the names above are good ones.
j-vino must be in hiding, hasn't posted since the picture went up, maybe scared of how many of us WANT THAT PLANT LOL
Doris
LOL Doris! With that color and those tendrils and the replies on this thread he's probably been guarding it since posting. LOL
Beautiful and I love the rich color of this one.
Beautiful, everything about it!!It looks like a Monarch!!
Bonnie
I'm here. Just sitting back trying to soak in all the responses. I took some more pictures yesterday. The blooms are 7-10 days old now and still look great.
