Area 9 – Notes.

‘Gay Time’ (9-028) was labelled ‘Yesterday’. It matches ‘Gay Time’ at (4E-004) but not ‘Yesterday’ at (2D-016).

‘Olga Carlyon’ (9-018) was labelled ‘Rosemary Sawle’ but was quite different from the other two plants of that name in this section. It matches one at Anthony and has the same serrated ends to the petals as the plant at Tregrehan, where it was raised. The ‘Rosemary Sawle’s are a good match with the Tregrehan records.

‘Tristrem Carlyon’ 9-023 appears to be partly ‘Debbie’. High in the bush, well out of reach, the foliage and flowers look different and seem to be correct, but since they are mostly well out of reach, I have been unable to take pictures and those shown her are of ‘Debbie’. The plant has a number of stems from the ground, some of which are ‘Debbie’, some ‘Tristrem Carlyon’. The stems of ‘Debbie’ could be removed but the rest would then collapse, and ‘Debbie’ would grow back strongly.

(9-003) was labelled ‘China Clay’ but has bicolored flowers so must be something else. I have been unable to identify it.
