| Sinningia 'Party Dress' hybridized and grown by Thad Scaggs |
Sinningia ‘Party Dress’ – Will it follow ‘Gabriel’s Horn’ into the Fairy Gardens?
There are many named varieties of Sinningia flowers with the whirling flair of a party dress.
Thad Scaggs, dedicated hybridizer of Sinningias and other Gesneriads, has shown his creations and selected a pink one to be the one and only ‘Party Dress’. Thad has others, also, with names like ‘Florida Floozie’ and ‘Diva’.
The double-calyx flowers are very unique and the extra outside petals appear to float around the center corolla. The flowers have size and their weight cause them to droop down. This gives the party dress look.
So far production is limited to rooting tip cuttings.
Will there be a series of ‘Party Dress’- type Sinningias produced in the future?
