Another hybrid that I recently purchased. It has a very large flower.

Parents: M. caudata X M. veitchiana

The M. veitchiana is very obvious in this one.

Really lovely!

Reminds me a lot of my Copper Angel which is also a veitchiana hybrid.

Very nice. A remake of the older cross?

Thanks Tindo and Rosie. The M. veitchiana hybrids are so lovely.

Ron, this is the Hawk Hill Kimballiana. The original cross was very yellow. I prefer this cross as it has all that lovely purple hair!

Thought so. I had the old Kimballiana cross and they weren't all yellow.

Wow, that is very different. I like it too. I must be thinking of something else.
