Seed parent: Moraea villosa a
Pollen parent: Moraea tulbaghensis with blue eye
Crossing these two species generally produces orange flowers with colorful eyes. The flowers are usually relatively small and cupped, about halfway between the size and shape of M. villosa and M. tulbaghensis.
This cross is pretty typical, but I like the brightness of the colors.
MM 11-20a. Very nice clear colors, with a large eye.
MM 11-20b. This one is so deeply cupped that I had to hold down one of the tepals for the photo.
MM 11-20c. There are some interesting purple shades in the tepals, but otherwise the colors in this one are a bit dull.
