Virginia Dickey (Slc. Pink Doll x Sl. Pole-Star) is a darling mini-Catt. It has so many nice qualities like it flowers twice a year, does so in a 3” pot, has sturdy stems, blooms with 3 bright-red flowers, and has excellent shape. The parents of Barefoot Mailman are (L. briegeri x Slc. Madge Fordyce) Its 4-5 flowers have excellent shape and colour, and they are well held on a sturdy stem 8-10” above the foliage. For this hybrid, the objective is to produce small plants with good stems holding high 3-4 flowers.  The colours will range from orange to red with some exhibiting splashes in darker red. A cool new direction in mini cat breeding
