Moraea MM 16-07

Seed parent: MM 12-119a (M. atropunctata x calcicola)
Pollen parent: MM 12-139a (M. 'Zoe' X atropunctata)

MM 16-07a. Wow, this one is remarkable: The very pale yellow eye, the precise ring of dots around it, and the reddish inner tepals. I’ve been breeding Moraeas for about a decade now, and they still surprise me. (For a similar flower see MM 16-20a).



A couple of siblings. Note the changes in the central cup, and the color and shape of the inner tepals.





GK 1621. A very nice flower from this cross, raised by Garry Knipe.
