    Hybrid parent formula

    "It was raised from the seed of an unnamed Bornean species fertilised by the pollen of N. Dominiix, the latter being itself a hybrid between N. Rafflesiana and the same undetermined Bornean species. It is a matter for regret that no means exist now of ascertaining what this Bornean species was, but as it was made use of in several of Messrs. Veitch's crosses we may in time be able to detect the progenitor in the characters of its descendants. All we can say at present is a mere guess that the unknown plant may have been N. lanata, concerning which plant we shall have more to say at another time." A
