Gladiolus MM 15-104

Seed parent: MM 11-21a (G. gracilis x priorii) X unknown

Pollen parent: MM 11-21d (G. gracilis x priorii) X unknown

I crossed a couple of very spotted/streaky hybrids, and they reverted to a fairly standard pink.

Gladiolus MM 20-372

Seed parent: MM 15-38b (G. violaceo-lineatus X (gracilis x priorii)

Pollen parent: Unknown (tag mislabeled)

The pollen parent tag said MM 11-24f, but that's a Moraea hybrid, so I screwed up somewhere.

Hmmmm. I don't see much of the pollen parent in this flower.

Moraea MM 20-246

Seed parent: MM 17-26a (M. lurida x villosa) X (lurida x (aristata x villosa))

Pollen parent: Moraea elegans

It was a nice try, but there is absolutely no sign of M. elegans characteristics in these flowers.

Siblings:

Gladiolus MM 20-71

Seed parent: MM 11-36 (G. tristis X carneus)

Pollen parent: G. bonaspei

This is a cross between a pink hybrid and a red-yellow species, so I sincerely doubt that this white flower is their offspring. It's probably seeds from another nearby cross.

MM 20-22a. Wow, the intensely dark inner tepals really stand out.

A sibling...

Pollen parent: MM 13-77c (villosa x tulbaghensis) X (villosa x tulbaghensis)

MM 18-186a

MM 18-186b. This is a fascinating flower, with its two-tone tepals, veins, and contrasting inner and outer tepals. If I could get these color patterns with more vivid colors, I think it'd be a lot of fun.

Moraea MM 18-178

Seed parent: MM 13-195 (M. lurida X (aristata x villosa))

Pollen parent: MM 13-69d (tulbaghensis X villosa)

MM 18-178a. What an odd flower! It looks reddish in these photos, but in person it also has brown overtones. I like the two-tone eyes and the colored tips on the style crests.

Pollen parent: MM 14-146d (villosa x tulbaghensis) X villosa

MM 18-164a. Hmmmm, this looks a lot like species M. bellendenii.

Moraea MM 18-125

Seed parent: MM 12-155a (Moraea 'Zoe' X neopavonia)

Pollen parent: MM 13-94c (tulbaghensis x villosa)

Moraea MM 18-63

Seed parent: MM 13-138 (M. bellendenii X aristata)

Pollen parent:  MM 13-138 (M. bellendenii X aristata)

This flower is unusual because the eye is orange, but I was hoping for a yellow flower with the brilliant blue eye of M. aristata.
