Deperle x hirsutissimum -- from Ernie when he came to Lansing. The colors are soft and subtle. Nice one, Ernie!

that's really lovely... i like the 'softness' of the flower... and yes, I'm surprised about the colour... how come the hirsutissimum colour didn't come through?

I am more surprised that the hirsutissimum shape wasn't more prominent. The influence of delenatii to wash color from a hybrid is legendary. The color of hirsutissimum shows up with the small spotting on the petals and the yellow dorsal sepal.
