Roscoea tibetica x cautleyoides Last Emperor



Archive entry 12.08.07

The first seedling of the batch to flower. Fortunately the seed was collected from R.tibetica, or I would have suspected self pollination of R.cautleyoides.
Tiny little purple sprinkles on the labellum hint at its hybrid nature.
