This I believe maybe a hybrid with Illustris or maybe it was one of the parents for producing illustris. I am not yet sure exactly what it is but it is similar. Illustris and others have a similar look to the affinis forms and they maybe hybrids of it? No one seems to know for sure. This beauty looks similar but much less dark coloration. Unfortunitly this form usually grows out of this dark stage and when mature has manly solid green leaves. But when young it produces leaves with this dark coloration? Any one know anything about this one??
