Moraea mm 10-25

Seed parent: Moraea aristata
Pollen parent: Moraea mm 03-04a (aristata x calcicola)

I wanted to see if I'd get some odd recessive genes from this cross, but actually it looks very much like M. aristata. Maybe the tepals are a little broader, and the eys is less prominent, but if I didn't know this was a hybrid I'd probably assume it was M aristata. That's not surprising, I guess, since it contributed 3/4 of the total genes in the cross.
