Sinningia 'Coven'

Sinningia 'Coven' is my hybrid with peloric flowers.  By now there are plenty of peloric sinningia hybrids.  Most of those which don't get their peloria from S. speciosa can trace their peloria back to Sinningia cardinalis 'George Kalmbacher'.  That is the case with 'Coven', which gets it from S. 'Skydiver', which is a descendant of 'George Kalmbacher'.

Ancestry

This hybrid was a result of crossing Ruth Coulson's S. 'Serenade' with a plant which was in turn a cross of Dale Martens's S. 'Texas Zebra' and my S. 'Peninsula Belle'.  Adding the ancestry of these three hybrids together, we see that S. 'Coven' has parentage involving at least these seven species:

• S. bulbosa
• S. cardinalis
• S. conspicua
• S. eumorpha
• S. lineata
• S. reitzii
• S. striata

Flower

This picture clearly shows the peloria of the flower.  The outside of the tube is pale pink, while the corolla lobes are bluish lavender.
