Another top quality show tazetta from Wilf .
His comments are interesting so I left the email on ..
I saw Secret Blush last season and it is a stunning colour combination ; just a subtle but eyecatching
hint of pink on the flower rim .Also a quality , clean perianth and good flower attachment on a strong stem
Note again that Wilf has used another genuine smallcup as the pollen parent and the result is again a well
proportioned tazetta that looks very balanced .Last season it was a lot later flowering .
Cheers John . ..

Hi John,
Had hopes of marking a few seedlings today, but it will have to wait until Sunday. I did find a stem of ‘Secret Blush’ with the pink still evident. It’s breeding is “Grand Monarque’ x ‘Fiddleedee’ I couldn’t believe this at first, but John Hunter was saying that some of Jackson’s 3W-P seedlings had ‘Fiddleedee’ as parents. Couldn’t get the super macro to work today. I have a feeling that there are no photos of ‘Secret Blush’ on Daffseek but I could be wrong.
Cheers Wilf.
