Eucodonia Adele (P. Worley)

Eucodonia Adele

This is the first time I have risen this plant. Like the hairy leaves and these gentle bells. And it's fool of rhizomes in the pot.

[Valkiria]

There are still a lot of buds, hope it will make it to the show at the end of November.
The flowers are more then 4 cm, bigger then the flowers of Kohleria.

Oh Diana, It's beautiful! Could you save me 1 rhizome?

[Valkiria]

Of course, Laci! I will keep several staffs till spring.
I come with the same proposal - keep for me one rhizome of eucodonia Naomi.

[Laci]

Sure, of course!

Here your plant is with longer stems, but this is totally compensated with the brownish leaves and the huge amount of white and pink fuzz. ^_^

Upper picture is when it was still young, now the stems are fuzzier.

So much fuzz!!!

I got one rhizome last fall and cannot wait for the flowers, the leaves are really hairy but feel very soft to the touch
