A very unusually coloured variety with reddish pink flowers attractively and regularly marked with yellow, especially towards the outer edge. Add white streaks and we have an auricula to talk about. Prefers a semi shaded site in the heat of the summer but well lit at other times. An excellent subject for the cold greenhouse or alpine house as well as the garden. Height 15cm (6")
