This cross did exactly what I expected: A purple species crossed with a hybrid that's orange and purple produced a mixed-color orange and purple flower. (If you have more than a quarter orange in the parentage, the flowers often turn out pure orange. But 3/4 purple and 1/4 orange often produces mixed color.)
MM 12-72a.
Here's a closeup of the center, brightened a bit so you can see the colors and markings in it.
