"Very special thanks to our very good friends and fellow hybridisers for allowing us to release these seven very good & exciting new cultivars for you to try and enjoy."
Diane Stephens (Bob Hewitson)  This fine new plant, a cross of Canny Bob and La Campanella brings us a very bright plant. Tube and sepals white with just a hint of pink blush. Single corolla is a beautiful glowing pink with deeper picotee edges. Small leaf of good green with short jointed firm growth should make this cultivar a winner.
North Star (Margaret Hall)  Slim Tube is white, sepals also white with green tips and a slight blush of pink on top of the sepals. The pure white corolla has sculptured wavy edges to the petals. Well flowered and neat growing, as we expect from all of Margaret Hall's releases, this plant appears to stand heat very well. Worth a try.
Making Waves (David Edmond)  Tube and recurving sepals on this fine flower are almost aubergine red. The very slim corolla is white with deep red veins. A very attractive flower and a lot of them. Small foliage & good habit put this plant amongst the show winners already.
Smarty (Margaret Hall)  Another fine plant with very strong 'flower power' Medium sized single flowers produced in abundance. Curled back sepals are light pink with green tips, shaded to almost white underneath. Corolla is a beautiful light blue which ages to a gentle mauve. This one has got to be a winner.
Another Little Cracker (Gordon Reynolds)  This has longer flowers than My Little Cracker and they are produced upward facing and in abundance. The light pink tube and sepals arch back to show a lovely light blue corolla which ages to light mauve. Fine growth and self branching make this a true show plant.
Sheila Mary Mason (Trevor Strickland)  This is a break for Trevor as it is not of the encliandra type but a true fuchsia that has unbelievable strength of growth and good self-branching habit. Tube and sepals are light pink with green tips, corolla darker, almost scarlet. Different and may prove hardy.
Angela Dawn (Bob Reily)  Forward facing flowers on this bright plant has already led it to have show bench success. Short tube almost white, sepals also white, but pink flushed underneath and with green curled back tips. Single corolla is very bright white.
