sharing snap of some lovely flowers taken in an exhibition in Kolkata last December

cineraria but cannot be too sure as the leaves cannot be seen


I also feel that it is Cinereria.


About cultivated plant there is one book whose author is “Bailey”


Hortus
Tropica
are two books by Bailey…


Manual of Cultivated Plants
Cyclopedia of American Horticulture
Hortus


The second Blue coloured Asteraceae may be Senecio cruentus


It should be Pericallis hybrida

this plant is Cineraria cruenta Masson ex L’Hér. {Senecio cruentus (Masson ex L’Hér.) DC} family asteraceae.


The cultivated plant is now more correctly known as Pericallis x hybrida (a hybrid between P. cruenta and p. lanata)

Flower ID Request:
I captured this pic of a flower in Gangtok, Sikkim and I am not able to identify it. Please let me know what it could be…

I think Pericallis x hybrida (syn: Cineraria x hybrida, Senecio x hybridus).
Please also include picture of lower leaves for confirmation.


I have attached a brightened crop of the image which also shows its leaves.


definitely a cineraria

Cineraria?

Cineraria cruenta I hope. Please show some leaves.


Thanks for validation.
Some more from the same resort in various colors. Attachments (5).
Hope they help in id.


yes …


How to differentiate between Cineraria cruenta and Cineraria hybrida?
Are they the same?

Cultivated forms are better treated as C. hybrida, now treated as Pericallis hybrida

Pericallis × hybrida Senetti Deep Blue. ??

I see you are in a garden centre.

When I take pics in such places I also take a pic of the label.
Mind you plant labels can be wrong.
A friend bought a plant labelled Verbena bonariensis on Monday.. the leaves were completely wrong… another wrong label.
Locally a whole batch of plants were labelled Cotoneaster franchetti and were in fact   Lonicera caerulea…. common name honey berry ….the latest berry to be named a wonder food!
This plant  is correctly named…..used to be called Cineraria.

Label says Sennetti only !  Yes I know it is Cineraria !
