I tried to cross pollinate two plants (D. capensis 'Alba' and D. natalensis) in last December, and this is the only seedling that looks different than its parents. It is still young so I cannot verify just yet. If this is a hybrid, it will be my first one created! I'll keep on updating its growth until we find out the result

It'll be very interesting to see how this one grows out!

That's cute! You should post some pictures of the parents for a comparison

I'm really sad because I accidentally cooked this hybrid baby when I increased the light intensity
