I have L. sprengeri and L. radiata pumila × ×haywardii both in bloom now. The second one looks somewhat similar to the first one except that the petals are somewhat thinner, the pink is redder and there is only a faint hint of blue on the tips of the petals. Jim W., could it be another L. sprengeri that was mislabelled? --Lee Poulsen Pasadena, California, USA, USDA Zone 10a On Aug 6, 2005, at 7:48 AM, J.E.
