Hippeastrum 'Carmen'

Another big dark red hippeastrum. It is liked by both my wife and daughter :-) The colour is as dark as Benfica.

It is difficult to capture the true dark red colour of this bloom. I had to adjust the exposure to -1.0 to obtain the closest true colour. But even then, I can not captur the velvety petals and the sheen at the at the throat.









A bunchy look. 2 scapes with a total of eight blooms
