So here's a rich purple flower crossed with a rosy purple flower. I wonder what we'll get?
The answer is, we got a surprising amount of variety. Here's a family portrait.
MM 17-77a. Very interesting color pattern. I've started to get this in a few hybrids. Question: is that an orange eye, or are we seeing an orange background color where the eye should ahve been, and there's no actual eye at all? Check out 17-77b for a hint.
MM 17-77b. This flower has an orange area similar to the hybrid above, but this one has a narrow dark crescent-shaped eye. Plus the tepals have a faint rosy blush. Nice!
MM 17-77c
