КОМНАТНЫЕ РАСТЕНИЯ
ФОРУМ В ЭСТОНИИ

The description I have for this is:
Kimonson's Bells (Hybridiser unknown) Single lilac-violet, two toned frilled bell. dark green, plain. Semiminiature.

Is this a Russian hybrid? I really love it.
If anyone has a better or more correct description I'd really like to know. Also any information on it - is it an older hybrid?
Is it supposed to have the lovely dark stripe in the centre of the petals?

I tried to upload 2 photo's....I've either got just one, or 3 - with 2 the same. Maybe the 2nd one was too big, I couldn't get it smaller than 105kb.

I think it an old hybrid of the American origin. I do not know precisely when there was a flower form named a hand bell, but it is probable in 60th years or later. This form is characteristic for mini or semimini and very seldom meets at standard hybrids. The Russian hybridizers worked only with standard hybrids. *Lituanika* was the first and unique of semimnini hybrids deduced in Lithuania in 80th years.

Thank you for that information Tatjana, I had no idea of it's origin at all.

Зацвёл очередной стартер Kimonson's Bells. Очаровательные цветы, жаль долго не держатся. Kimonson's Bells - первая мини-фиалочка, которая появилась у меня, поэтому этот сорт мне так дорог.

Ульяна, видно что сорт вам дорог.
Очень хорошее фото получилось. Художественное такое.
