Does anyone have a pic of H. 'Belladonna'?

12 years ago

Its listed on Hadeco's website as a Sonatini, and I can't seem to find a good pic to compare. Mine is the right size to match and it was a Hadeco bulb(but not labeled correctly((of course)). The second pic is with Black Pearl and Sweet Nymph for scale.

Hello Mike,

I have H.belladonna, but I didn't photograph it. Judging from the size of your bulb and the appearance of the flower, I don't think that you truly have H. belladonna, which produces a small bulb. Your bulb looks good-sized, but the photo may be deceiving.

In addition, I would call the color of the flowers produced by my bulb a pinkish coral. Finally, the markings of your flower don't match my recollection of the H. belladonna, which had a green heart with delicate markings. It would help if I could remember the color of the filaments.

Best,

Blanca
