Diagnosis:
This cultivar resembles C. glabra var turnbullii in foliage.
Leaves are glossy green and aromatic when crushed. Differs from C. ‘ Mt
Barker Beauty ’ which has shorter flowers and a green calyx. The flowers of
C. ‘ Mt Barker Beauty ’ are also darker red and green and the colour change
from red to green occurs further up the corolla from the split. Mature
leaves of C. ‘ Mt Barker Beauty ’ are longer and wider. Differs from other
C.glabra var turnbullii varieties which have much shorter, narrower and
paler pink flowers with highly exerted stamens. Calyx of C.glabra var
turnbullii is green rather than tan and mature leaves are longer. The
flowers of C. ‘Summer Belle’ are larger than the usual C. glabra var
turnbullii varieties.
