Description

» English Description

Jacob Makoy et Cie Catalogue, 1838, p.10: Very double flower of the same beautiful colour and form as Corallina. van Houtte Catalogue, 1841, 7:18: Scarlet. Very fine form. Verschaffelt, 1853, Nouvelle Iconographie, Book IX, pl.II: Deserves a choice by reason of the size of blooms, their splendid colouring, a deep poppy crimson with fine veining of the petals which are ample, obovate, full or scarsely emarginate, spread out and imbricated with perfect regularity; in the middle a slight depression makes them somewhat channelled. The centre is composed of smaller, upright, uniform petals. Orthographic errors: ‘Robersoni’, ‘Roberstonii’, ‘Robertsoni’, ‘Robertstonii’. Synonym: ‘Robertson (2)’.
