More July flowers

3 comments

I have had a few unexpected flowers open. They are usual for late August/September, but probably opened early because of a little more rain than normal.
First is a xHippeastrelia. This is a cross between Hippeastrum (Amaryllis) and Spreklia.

I was able to show both front and back at the same time!
Then there is an Amarine tubergenii Zwanenburg. This is a cross between Amaryllis and Nerine. Because it has opened early, I am trying to cross it with a white Amarcrinum.

The pot this is in is right next to Agapanthus ‘Flore Plena’. This is a double.

The flowers don’t do a real good job of fully opening.

If the Agapanthus ‘Lilac Flash’ was not near other ones that are blue, you might not notice that it is a nice lilac.

Then there is the odd Hibiscus El Capitolio ‘Bloody Mary’ that started out with several single flowers, but has now become the double it is supposed to be.
