An oddity seems to be a hybrid but came from seeds that produced pure mutica similar to the next plant,

Bill, (tu) (tu) (tu) superb hybrids!! and others. Thanks for sharing.... (so that's what H.mutica v.nigra can look like in the UK, my plant has struggled since I received it but is now looking happier... and offsetting :P )

And... special thanks for supplying a reply re "whale-tail" flowers - I understand now! - from Bayer himself :notwo:
Please convey my thanks if that would be appropriate.

By the way: I have an idea that there's been a special event today, of interest to all UK haworthians :innocent: - I hope it went well, maybe those who attended will tell us?

Thank you. mutica shouldn't be too difficult but there are quite a few different clones, as it happens that is one of the nicer ones and typically has not yet shown any signs of offsetting.

It went very well I even got three tickets, the aforementioned mutica took third and I go another 3rd and a 2nd. I'll post some pictures of the winners tomorrow.
