Roscoea scillifolia Pink x purpurea Brown Peacock

Roscoea scillifolia Pink x purpurea Brown Peacock

	I did a lot of hybridising on 2005, and the resulting seedlings are just starting to flower. I would like to pretend that there was a plan, but the truth is, I just crossed those plants that flowered together and looked interesting. This was raised from seed collected from R.scillifolia, so I am fairly confident that it is a hybrid. There are a number of other seedlings in the batch still to flower.
