Bred by Don Rix of Pine Heights Hippy's, Queensland, Australia. Shorter plants than the UK strain but these don't bleach much in the sun. Colours range from plants like Joan Evans to a really nice pale pink. Recommended garden plant for climates a little warmer than the UK.

Photographs of this Freesia taken at the former African Garden in Estover, Plymouth, Devon; once home to the NCCPG National Collection of Freesia Anomatheca Group.
