MM 12-145a. This cross combined four beautiful species, which you'd think would produce something spectacular. Instead I got a dull cream flower. This is a very large, tall plant, and I do kind of like the hits of yellow in the inner tepals. But overall I'm not all that impressed. I will be interested to see what its siblings look like. I hope they'll show more color.
