L'elegante - leaf

hybridiser: Cannell
this elegant one is a truly old kind, it's from sometime before 1868. under strenuous conditions the leaves will change the colour of their borders from cream to pinkish. so, if we like that, we will have to torture L'elegante... and we do... mo-ha-ha-ha :-¤
i've also seen it spelled L'elégant and (although i don't think that can be grammatically right) Le Elegante.

unknown purple beauty

picked this one up at a flower boutique... the colour is more bluish than my camera will allow... it's a peltatum and have vigorous growth... do you know it's name?
august 2nd; maybe it's PAC Tomcat? or Pelfi Black Magic? Woodstock?
here are some pix where the colour is more correct:
