A bulb I planted last year has just bloomed and I'm not sure of the name. My tag says 'Strawberry Fields Forever', but it was one of three heaved tags found together this spring. I am totally exasperated trying to find a photo to compare, so perhaps one of you can verify the name or give me a correct ID. My thanks in advance.

There is a Hemerocallis called Strawberry Fields Forever.
Could this be Peach Chiffon?

Gorgeous whatever it is.
My tag is marked Calla Strawberry Fields Forever, so if it is not this one, it's in the bed somewhere near. I have narrowed down from 3 to 2 unknown Calla tags due to a bloom I could identify. Makes me so mad I do not keep better records - I bought several Callas from a source last year that had very unusual bulbs, so this SFF must have come from there. Unless I find a record of the buy, I cannot return for additional bulbs. :(

From whom did you buy them?
Not knowing the name of the seller is one of my problems. It was a very good source so I will continue to dig deeper in my records to hopefully come up with the name. So many of the Calla dealers have the same bulbs, while I know there are a bizillion new cultivars out there. If I find the source, I will post it here.

That would be interesting to find out where you got it from, as I haven't found it anywhere! Geerlings (growers), Lakeside callas, Pacific callas, are the only real suppliers I have found.
Please keep digging!
Janet, you correctly identified what I thought might be SFF, as Peach Chiffon. So, my search continues for SFF. I should have waited another day or two before taking pictures of my new ones. In just a day, they have wrapped more and the color has intensified. Reminds me of brugs.

Great, I thought it looked like it, when you have looked at things for a while they do have their own little characters. That means just one out of the three to go. I will have to be more determined to find a photo!
