The breeder told me that he had reversed the pod and pollen parents on this very old cross hoping to get bigger flowers on a small plant - good idea that didn't work - same size flower on bigger plant.

Yes- I agree - I've had it for 15+ years and it is a reliable bloomer (the original cross is a weed in my greenhouse)

I think it's still a nice cross.
