    Default Phal bellina x Phal violacea indigo blue

    Hi all,

    I understand that we get Phal. Samera by crossing Phal bellina and Phal violacea but what do we get if Phal bellina x Phal violacea indigo blue?

    I am not able to find any answers from the internet.

    Please advice.

    A cross between the two species Phal violacea and Phal bellina is always called Phal Samera. It doesn't matter if any special varieties or particulars clones/cultivars are used for the cross. In the case you specify, indigo blue is either a clonal name and should then be written as Phal violacea 'Indigo Blue', or simply a description of the particular color form.
