    whis4ey,

    I think that you may want to check A.p. 'Crimson Prince'. This is a new red palmate. I was given a small plant last year but it is way to early to say what it will look like.

    That also is Crimson Prince Alex, not Crimson Princess :)

    Sam,
    It is not in the World Checklist. I have 'Pink Princess', a very dwarf selection from H.Geers of Boskoop, could they be the same?

    Sam, An A.p. 'Crimson Princess' is listed on this Suffolk, Virginia, U.S. site www.bcnursery.com/store.asp . No photo, but a description. It's not a dissectum, so a different cultivar from that shown on the Burncoose site, similar names should make it confusing.

    Sounds suspiciously like the very careless naming that we have discussed before on this forum
    One wonders once again if this is simply to encourage collectors to part with their hard earned cash
