    Default LC Mem Robert Strait 'Blue Hawaii'

    Another first bloom seedling, nice color, thought not great flares, small size, ,but then again, it is a first bloom. WONDERFUL fragrance.

    That looks great! I have one too, pretty sure it's the same clone. I'm still waiting for the flowers though.

    The other common clone has magenta coloring instead of the purple/blue color. I don't remember the name.

    It's small now as still a baby. Being an LC, I think it will wind up being a mid sized plant. Older ones I have seen are relatively compact, with 5" flowers.
