Very, very nice! I have a mericlone of 'Estrela da Colina' - I think I like that seedling's flower even better. And being a seedling, your plant is genetically unique, so that's pretty cool. Congratulations!

Fred,
There is no clonal name for the pollen parent (as I mentioned before), however, I just realized that the plant is a 4N plant. Maybe mine is too? |

 ....I guess it is 4N, too....to my knowledge, only a 4N crossed with another 4N will have fertile seeds, and the seeds will be all 4N(?) |

This is a first bloom for my plant that is mounted, so I think I would want to wait to fertilize, but I would definitely send you some of my pollen. Im in Hawaii, where are you at? Im guessing Texas. |

Lucky you, Steve! I got some crosses involving 'Estrela da Colina' and none of them came out with flowers as beautiful as yours! Congrats!

Pollen parent is an offspring of 2 C walkeriana semi-albas, 'Puanani' and 'H&R'. Pollen parent is an excellent large semi-alba 4.5" NS.

Now that is some detailed and valuable info! From your name (catwalker808) I'm assuming that you live in Hawaii. Good to have you on the OB and its always good to have more Hawaii growers here too!  We have surprisingly few of them here. |
