This is a beautiful maddenii x 'Royal Flush Group' hybrid from Mark Jury in New Zealand. With large and fragrant, bright crimson flowers and glossy green foliage, this is a great plant for milder or protected locations. The remarkably colored flowers fade to almost white on the outer lobes, quite striking. A reliable bloomer and fine for many years in a container in colder climates.
A classic Lord Aberconway hybrid, one of many in the “Lady Chamberlain Group”. This selection was made from the cross cinnabarinum (yellow form) x ‘Royal Flush Group” (orange form) which actually makes it three-quarters cinnabarinum. Lovely butter yellow flowers with a reddish flush at the base of the tube. Now rarely seen in gardens. Winner of a First Class Certificate in 1944.
A really fantastic foliage plant - this is a cross between degronianum ssp. yakushimanum ‘Koichiro Wada’ and bureavii and features outstandingly beautiful foliage as you would imagine from the parentage. The leaves emerge whitish and have a dense cinnamon-brown indumentum on a rounded and mounding shrub. The white flowers have heavy reddish spotting. Easily grown in light shade or morning sun.
These are seedlings grown from a hand-pollination done here at the RSBG utilizing the classic, fragrant and hardy, pink-flowered form of discolor combined with our hardiest form of griffithianum in an attempt to “redo” the original cross that resulted in the famous ‘Angelo’ grex of hybrids. The ‘Angelo’ grex produced plants very similar to the ‘Loderi’ grex but with flowers later in the season due to utilizing ssp. discolor instead of ssp. fortunei. Please let us know how your plant survives and what the flowers look like when it blooms.
A new semi-dwarf “yak” hybrid from Glendoick. The “first really deep yellow yak” this has rounded trusses of deep bright yellow in late spring. Should be quite hardy and even heat tolerant.
