Siam Ruby

Chiang Rai Red. Thailand. Huge clusters of 2 ½-3” bright red on a medium tree. Opens to really saturated color that almost looks flocked. Deep velvety matte in appearance. Ages to a larger pink flower. If you floated them in a bowl you wouldn't think they were from the same tree as the pink doesn't look aged. The colors seem to glow even in cool overcast weather. 3.5" bright red with orange center, 4", one dark red line on the petal, petal slightly curl upward, gardenia scent. Medium tree. Recommended for fragrance. Coconut scent. On coast, light color, thin petals. Good growth habit. Can bloom on new tips. Very fragrant of sweet berries. Siam Ruby with less yellow in throat than Siam Red. Very sweet strong fragrance. Better bloomer than Siam Red. Pubescent inflo stalk. Cold tolerant. Hard to root. Very brilliant ruby red with orange eyes, strong fruit punch-gardenia fragrance. Compact habit and easy to bloom, bloom in a nice bundle.
