I grow a number of different forms of Watsonia wilmaniae. This peachy pink form came from
Mark Fillan. The others came from Proper Plants.
Watsonia wilmaniae "A".
1st August 2006
'A' is a good mid pink. It tends to hold on to the dead flowers for longer than I would like, so even in
the middle of its flowering period, it is rather droopy and gloomy.

Smaller flowered than 'C', but I think it is the better plant. Unfortunately the flower
spikes are a bit lax so there is still room for improvement.

Watsonia wilmaniae "D".
Watsonia wilmaniae "E".
The brightest pink of the forms I grow. It is a nice plant, but it also suffers from weak stems that flop over readily.
