Moraea MM 18-329

Seed parent: MM 13-84d (M. loubseri X ((atropunctata x neopavonia) x (atropunctata x calcicola)))
Pollen parent: Moraea villosa o

I am very happy about this cross. The seed parent is a purple-orange hybrid that resembles M. loubseri. The pollen parent is a bright magenta and blue flower. Combining them produced some very richly colored flowers.

MM 18-329a. This one is very dark and mysterious. I like the pointed tepals (from M. loubseri) and the vivid blue eyes (from M. villosa).

MM 18-329b. Wow! Note the orangey color on the backs of the tepals.

MM 18-329c. Check out the crazy long inner tepals, like purple dental floss.
MM 18-329d


Here's another one...
