Comments

Corona bowl-shaped, red.

A description according to deJager’s 1964 catalog: “the broad white overlapping perianth is of good substance and quality, the large bowl-shaped cup is intense vivid red, a very striking large flower resembling ‘Kilworth’ but has the great advantage of flowering earlier.”
