Variety description

10 August 2026

In historical variety lists of the Rhapsodie series by Holtkamp from the 1970s, the variety Rhapsodie Venus is mentioned. This plant was characterized by the presence of light-pink star-shaped flowers.

Modern catalogs of the Holtkamp company have switched to a numbering system for types; therefore, detailed agronomic characteristics for the historical variety Rhapsodie Venus are absent in open publications.
