Comments

Fls 3-5 per stem, 57 mm wide; perianth segments broadly ovate in outline, blunt or rounded at apex, mucronate, yellowish white spreading, plane to concave, with margins sometimes slightly incurled, sometimes notched, with midrib showing, of heavy substance, overlapping half; the inner segments less noticeably mucronate, a little inflexed, with margins wavy; corona bowl-shaped, lightly ribbed, light yellowish pink mouth straight and wavy, with rim entire or obscurely crenate.

Origin of Name

In the hybridizer’s own words: “It was bred and first flowered at Fencourt, a farming community just north of Cambridge in the Waikato, New Zealand. I wanted to name at least one of the seedlings from there after the area. The Jewel came of course from the pollen parent ‘Little Jewel’.”
