Royal super kabuto

[Frank]

There is a new super kabuto related cultivar called "Royal super kabuto".
Royal super kabuto is ruri kabuto x super kabuto.
The character of the cultivar is distinct white flecks over the azre body.
I could not get seeds and so tried to make by myself.
The photo is my Royal super kabuto, 1st filial, around 5 cm diameter.

Nice plant!
Where is it come from?  It is you who have crossed them?
I feel it looks like a bit a light Hanazono form.

G'morning Emanuele and mainy

Thanks you comments.
My royal super kabuto is just 1st filial. Seedlings show various faces.
They are from normal super kabuto to complete ruti kabuto. I select "between" as Royal super kabuto.
I will sow seeds very soon. Today's forecasted maximum temperature is 30 'C.

Time passed quickly. It passed 3 years from my last post.
I actually sowed seeds on 11th November 2011.
The attached photo is one of seedlings germinated from the seeds.
The current size is around 5 cm diameter.
