Richter blossom photos

I wanted to have all of the info and photos that I have of Richter's plants all in one place.  This is all from Candy's blog.  Without Candy's efforts, most of these would be gone forever.  I have leaves down, or babies, of each of these but none of mine have grown large enough to bloom.

Richter's Pearly Shells (1607) 03/30/1966 (F. Richter) Double medium pink. Ovate, quilted. Large

Richter's Charm Song (1137) 08/19/1959 (A. Richter) Double light blue. Ovate. Standard

Softique (1957) 07/09/1969 (A. Richter) Double pale pink. Ovate, quilted, fluted. Standard

(Per Cy, on the AVBrats board, the original Softique plant in the early to mid-70s had light colored foliage (very pale foliage that readily bleached) with absolutely no red undersides. Either Candy's plant has been mislabeled, misidentified or reverted (throwback to a previous generation).  The original catalog description was as follows ""Huge baby pink fluffy double. Slightly frilled foliage.")

A note about growing Tipt. It needs to be placed at the center of your lights and maybe a little closer to the lights as well.

The following blog is mine.  Candy has received leaves of this but I don't know how they're doing at this point.  Renee is the reason that Candy sent me leaves of all the plants above.
