Description

» English Description

Cachet Catalogue, 1840-1841, p.2: Blotched white. Van Houtte Catalogue, 1841, 7:19: Imbricated, well rounded petals, bright red, tinted with salmon and speckled white. Originated in Italy. See colour pl.160, Berlèse, Iconographie, vol.II. as ‘Suzannah’. Van Houtte, 1844-1845, 18:19, gives Nicholsonii and Pictorum Striata as synonyms, but from early descriptions and illustrations they would seem to be separate cultivars, although some­what similar. Orthographic errors: ‘Sussannah’, ‘Suzannah’, ‘Susunnah’.
