I almost bought one of these a few weeks ago at a plant sale, it's a nice shape and color

Very nice color! Love nobilior! I have a var amaliae in bloom and my coerulea is in bud. Good growing!

BTW - The fragrance usually takes a few days to develop.

Nice. Why is it that walkeriana is common but not nobilior?

Great question! The only nobilior breeder here in the US is H&R, so I think its a matter of access.

Even most walkeriana sold here in the US is not the true species, but is a mix of walkeriana x loddigesii (think "walkeriana" clones like 'Kenny' or 'Pendentive'). H&R also has an amazing selection of true walkeriana.

I'm not sure, i think Steve gave a wonderfull explanation for your country. Overhere it is also harder to get then a walkeriana, maybe it just not so popular as the walkeriana's? 😁
