Howdy All,

I have posted in previous years my seedling that flowered from seed of Cyrtanthus sanguineus x [Cyrtanthus sanguineus x Cyrtanthus loddigesianus]..... this year I had a second seedling flower, this one an orangey reddish colour.  I'm including here pics of both seedlings.  Similar shape, but VERY different colour.  ;D
Cheers.

Maggi,

Even better, the plan was to cross them and one successfully set a pod.  Around 12 seeds resulted!!  ;D ;D

It will be interesting to see what they produce.  I just have to get them sown (which is a problem I have at times  ::)). It would be interesting to see what they threw back to, or whether they would be as uniform in shape etc as these two sibling seedlings were.
Cheers.
