That 'Meguriai' seems mislabeled. It should be red. Not pinkish like this.

'Hachmai', so far has produced overlapping 6 petal flowers. The flower is a good size, not to small yet not to large.

Here's the infamous 'Cinderella'. This was a good cutting based on the good amount of variation on the flowers. I'm looking forward to seeing this one grow out.

The 'Certoryje' stays that small. And yes it is very red. However, I believe I have larger flowering seedlings from it that are basically the same colour of red.
The Czech name though is just so hard. I can never write it. It may be one of the toughest European obtusum/kurume types.

Talking about names, I noticed recently that Hachmann cultivar are now being sold by Monrova under the 'Kimono' trademark:

Wasn't there a person here a few years ago who was working at Monrovia? I thought that place shut down, then there was someone here who said they worked there as another nursery had bought the old property. And the guy was going through the stock plants.
They also call it 'May Snow'.

Yes, the base patterning of 'Cinderella' looks excellent.
