Description
Sally Moragne: aka Y2K, Kobchompoo. #145 Possibly an original Sally M that is not the same as today's Sally M. 4 1/2"-5" Large pink, orange and yellow rainbow fades to almost white. Wide elliptical overlapping petals, floral fragrance, lanky grower. Distinctive red veining radiating to the outer edge. Large tree. Wide petals with rounded tip, highly overlapped; heavy texture; strong sweet fragrance; keeping quality good. Makes an exquisitely tree. Best of all the Moragne Hybrids. Tall upright grower with light yellowish green leaves with acute tips. Cold sensitive. Slow growing tree. Roots sensitive to compaction. Pod parent: Daisy Wilcox. Pollen parent: Scott Pratt. Very lush and heavy blooming. Leaves are typically wavy.
Sally M is sometimes mislabeled in Oz – actually India. The original Sally Moragne and India plants were mixed up, so any Sally Moragnes coming out of Darwin are actually India plants. In WA the plants sold as Peachy King are actually India; they do not follow the registered naming practices. Benara, the nursery that sells India as Peachy King, have nursery locations in other states, and Indonesia, so the naming issue from this side could be Australia-wide. I especially like their leaves being small so they don't cover the flowers.
