Leptotes bicolor, 4N
2nd time I am blooming this one. The plant is now mature size (and 'chunky'). Flowers are a solid 2.0" natural spread, and 2.5" vertical.
If I remember correctly, Alan Koch told me that this is the 7th generation of his 4N Leptotes bicolor breeding.

Very nice! I got an AM/AOS on one of his seedlings. Almost killed it in a pot, then mounted it on cork. It grows so slowly compared to a regular 2N I once had.

I had every intention of taking in for AOS judging, but currently the monthly judging is cancelled.
