A cross a friend of mine made:
Slc Charming Jewel x (C. harrisoniana x C Leah Addis)

Color is affected somewhat by light intensity during bud development. The colors prtrayed here are actually very accurate on this one -- especially with the lip. It really is this color of red with an almost electric/luminous fuschia edging. Has a citrus fragrance.

WOW! That's incredible...so subtle, but so intense at the same time...you and your friend did a great job!

Now that is a super gorgeous Catt!! :drool: That was a perfect cross, and the offspring could not have been any better. I would love to have one! Is the cross registered?

Paul that's beautiful. I love how the lip is not quite red but not quite fuschia either, and there's even a hint of orange. Very nice!
