One of the newer nuttallii hybrids, this selection has huge and fragrant white flowers and smooth and peeling bark. It is derived from nuttallii x (lindleyi x dalhousiae).
An excellent new hybrid from Ken Cox at Glendoick. This is a semi-dwarf, very compact-growing hybrid with glowing pink flowers in rounded trusses in mid-spring. The leaves are brightly reddish-purple beneath and the new growth is bronzy. A beautiful, very free-flowering and distinct foliage plant which Ken considers “the best of the dwarf hybrids with red leaf-undersides and the only one so far with pink flowers”. Easily grown but best out of the hot afternoon sun.
A fantastic hybrid between yunnanense and cinnabarinum. This beautiful cross was made by Lord Aberconway and features rhodamine-purple tubular bell-shaped flowers in abundance in late spring. As you would expect, this is an upright-growing and vigorous plant. Best in full sun or light shade.
This was a hand-pollination done here at the RSBG which will hopefully result in a ‘Loderi’ type plant with a more compact habit, rounded leaves, and flowers later in the season. It should be a late spring to early summer bloomer and probably in shades of pink. Ken Cox did this same cross and said the results were outstanding.
