So far-so good.

Omg!!! Is the color real??
Very nice!
The color does fade out a bit after a flower has been open for few days.
Would love to see it open and how the color stays.

Nice shade of pink, lovely.

 

[SlipperFan]

Color looks great. Let's hope the shape is as good.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this flower fully open.
The color is striking.

 

[Ozpaph]

Ive never seen one that pink - cant wait

 

[Trithor]

Great color prospects! I am looking forward to a picture of it fully open

 

[Happypaphy7]

[Happypaphy7]

It's still not open all the way??

I think that the problem is that the flower was opening during the transport from Germany to Italy.. And if that was not enough the shipping has delayed

the flower is ''locked'' in that way

 

[Happypaphy7]

Oh, well, what can you do?
but you have more buds to open and hopefully they will open up normally.
Time will tell.
For now, at least you know that it has great deep pink color, which is not common for this type of hybrids at all.
Most often, they are very pale pink.

probably the third time is the good one !

Dang that's pink!

 

[abax]

Oh noooo, transport trauma! The flowers look extremely
promising...very pink and very fuzzy. Keep us informed
on the progress of this one please.

There is only 1 flower this is not awardable!!! haha j.k. very nice color, looks promising!!!

They must of used the dunkel (vinicolor) variety of delenatii in this cross. I'm surprised nobody has jumped on this idea. In other words, you can all have one if you look for the right cross.
