C. Chocolate Drop Hybrids
Regulars here are well aware that I am a real sucker for red flowers. As a result, C. Chocolate Drop is a favorite parent for me. Many of it's hybrids are rather on the small side and often the form is far from flat, but the colors-- OH MY!

Good growing!

Hi Jerry
Your flower is a delicious red.
Maybe you can help me. A few Chocolate Drop hybrids I saw in greenhouses are tall and some have 5 foot roots hanging out of the baskets. Do you know of one that is under a foot in height at maturity and still retains the red color and fragrance?

I too love the chocolate drop hybrids! In fact i would like to find a chocolate drop!
I have an hybrid called " LC miva royal chocolate delice" It's an hybrid relatively easy to find here. It is gorgeous and nicely scented |
