Anecdotal Notes
PR gets streaks and also irregular splashes with a yellow center. MR has white petals with red striping on one side of the backs that shows through and a very dark red-orange center. Recommended for the coast. 3" white with yellow throat and irregular blotches and splashes of red and pink. Petals overlap, partly twisted and curved in an irregular manner. Leaves: dark green with lighter veining and pointed tip. Hybrid of Mme Poni. That splash is consistently in every flower to some degree; some more than others. It is a must-have! Great fragrance too. Tall peduncle makes for flower display above foliage. Tangy sweet fragrance, like nice soap. Sibling of Rainbow Diamond / Petch Sairung. Each bloom looks different from the other. An easy bloomer producing numerous bloom heads on a well branched plant. Branch cuttings are heavy, root easily and have from 3 to 4 tips. Heavy bloomer. Intense sun causes color splashing making every bloom different. East to root. Sets seed.
