Pollen parent: Moraea atropunctata
The parents:
MM 12-106a. This poor flower had just been pounded by the rain when I photographed it, but you can see its basic features. I was hoping to get an orange flower with atropunctata spots, but that's not how it turned out. I do like the nearly-triangular shape of the tepals, which came from M. atropunctata.
Here's how it looks when it hasn't been beaten-on by the rain:
MM 12-106c. Spots on the backs of the tepals here.
MM 12-106d. Similar to form A, but the markings are subtly different (also, this flower is fresher and hasn't been rained on).
Some other siblings are lighter-colored:
