Description
HOWICK’S HALF NELSON
2WWY-Y(b)
[Incomparabilis]
(British or Dutch origin?)
The straight corona and conspicuously long stigma suggest affinities with the Nelsonii Group. The horizontal poise of the flower and the perianth segments held perpendicularly to the corona, however, are not characteristic of this Group. With the staining at the base of its perianth segments, possibly Barrs’ ‘Nestor’.
