Grown from seed, this has been well worth the wait. A really outstanding bloom!

I haven't this one Keith I have a new one growing from seed called S. pratensis ' Sweet Esmeralda ' which looks to be very similar , I'm not happy with the seed I received about 9 seeds and only 3 are growing they are small at the moment ,I'm hoping the plants grow healthy then I can take cuttings or save seed from them ....

I had poor germination with that one too (different supplier probably as I had a lot more seeds) and the ones that did are slow growers.

I've re-potted them today two have fairly good root systems but the third is touch and go !

Packet of seeds costs less than one plant I suppose............
