Rhodohypoxis 'Tetra White'



3rd June 2007 3rd June 2007 22nd June 2007
The white flowered equivalent of 'Tetra Red'.

Edelweiss Perennials say:

"The biggest flowers yet! It's a slow increaser and we'll have only very few a year.

The Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder says:

"'Helen' features white flowers with a light pink blush on the tips of the petals. This cultivar is sometimes sold under the name 'Tetra White', but the two selections are considered synonymous."

As 'Helen' it was entered in the RHS Rhodohypoxis trial (1988-90) but did not receive an award.
