Sinningia 'Toney Dale' IR101149 |
Sinningia 'Toney Dale' is the result of a cross between one of my hybrids and one of Richard Holders (S. 'Iris Walker' x S. 'Cherry Delight'). My double Sinningia 'Rebecca Margarita' is a sibling. It is a soft orange to coral, according to the light source. It has large blooms and is a compact plant. It should carry the genes for calyx doubles and will be interesting to see what comes in future generations with this one. Where 'Rebecca Margarita' gets its color from S. 'Iris Walker', the color here is straight from 'Cherry Delight'. |
This shot you can see how long the flowers are, it is growing in a 2 and half inch pot here.
