    Vesuvius forms, as you might expect, are bright orange/red/scarlet.

    Haven't come across Alba, the white version of Maltese Cross but it looks good.

    Had white and magenta coronaria near each other and they crossed and made plants with white flowers and blush pink centres.  Gorgeous.  Will try it again here.

    I always grew coronaria in full sun in Belgium but here I've seen it in shade and the magenta becomes luminous rather than garish.  I'll be trying that too.
    Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.
