landanew, what a pretty plant. And so many blooms. Peter packs things so well, it's no surprise they look so lovely.
*asks her usual question* What does it smell like?

Nice orange color. I can't remember the parents, but I believe this one has a good flower count when mature. Your plant looks good. Nice growing.

It's Summer Wine x venosa. Summer Wine is Bettylee Burke x amboinensis. Thanks for posting this - it's a hybrid I made when I worked at Klehm's in the 1990s. Great to see it's still around.

Gorgeous and Peter Lin has some of the finest plants. He's so helpful and nice, too!
I love how these flowers seem to glow from their center.
