Moraea MM 12-160

Seed parent: Moraea bellendenii
Pollen parent: Moraea loubseri

As often happens when I cross purple and yellow species, I got flowers with a faint yellow background and purple overtones.

MM 12-160a. Given the different eye sizes, these two flowers may be different clones. But note that they both have the dark hairy centers typical of M. loubseri.


MM 12-160b. This one has a light yellow center, speckled with black. The center is just as hairy as form a, but the hairs are mostly pale yellow.

MM 12-160c.
