Baronscourt (field ID code PACE 63/6/9) A mauve selected from a cross made in 1985 between Aerospace, a white which has contributed a little extra frill, and a rogue maroon in Eclipse: it was awarded a C of M in 1994. Introduced by Kerton Sweet Peas.
Hannah Beth (field ID code KAMO 23/6) A very pale mauve flushed on a white ground, derived from a 1994 cross between Karen Reeve and a Baronscourt reselection: we love its classic form. Awarded C of M in 2000, Hannah Beth was launched by Kerton Sweet Peas for 2004-5. Hannah Beth Fincham is a beautiful young lady who is a descendant of Edd Fincham.
Magnificent Mauve (field ID code KAMO 15/3/1/4) Something different, also from the KAMO cross, and a challenge for the skilled exhibitor: it is so large that the sap flow must be kept steady to maintain sufficient petal texture and to prevent trapping of the petals in the calyx. Superb under cover, where these requirements are more easily met. Awarded a C of M in 2003.
Mount Stewart (field ID code KAMO 4/7/7) This mauve child of the KAMO cross achieved the Bronze Award for Exhibition in 2001, whilst at Unwins Seeds’ own trials it was decided to adopt it for general distribution. Unwins launched it in 2004 as ’Wisley’ to mark the bicentennial of the RHS.
