Moraea MM 11-54

Seed parent: Moraea MM 03-99
Pollen parent: Moraea gigandra

Pedigree: (neopavonia x villosa) X gigandra

MM 11-54a

 At first glance the flower looks like M. gigandra, but the tepals are violet (species gigandra is a deep blue-purple). And the central cup has some orange neopavonia color in it.

This is a handsome-looking flower in person, and I look forward to doing more breeding with it.
