Moraea MM 17-15

Seed parent: MM 12-95a (M. gigandra X loubseri)
Pollen parent: MM 12-109a (tripetala (small purple form) X neopavonia with blue eye)

A deep purple plant was crossed with a hybrid between a deep purple and an orange. The offspring turned out to be mostly pale orange or cream with a bit of purple. Weird. Here are a couple of family portraits:



Some of them look a lot like the pollen parent:

This one reminds me a lot of M. loubseri. Check out the weird streaky spots on the style crests.
