Large open flowers, Golden-Orange shading to Canary Yellow, with Crimson blotches around the eye, reverse of the tepals flushed Orange-Scarlet, very beautiful.

Sent as Vulcan to David Fenwick, but is wrong. This has been named by David. Bright Red flowers with a Yellow eye. Very pretty plant.

A rich Red form 'selected from hundreds of seedlings'. (Archibald 2000). Quite a pretty plant and at the moment quite rare.

Vigorous. Deep Orange flowers. The flower panicles are presented at an angle slightly below the horizontal. Hardy. Hybrid bred by Terry Jones of Zeal Monachorum, Devon. Very nice!!

The most important aspect of planting is to be sure that the soil is well-draining. I make a layer of sand in the base of my planting hole or trench.
Harvest first thing in the morning. When harvesting, very carefully clip-away the red stigma and dry this thoroughly before storing. |

Alluding to the French Liquer Cointreau. Large , soft Orange flowers of great substance with a pale Yellow centre, facing forward on a cascading stem, with relatively short pleated foliage. Pretty plant.
