| Both parents are relatively small. Amabilis is maybe 8" tall, and tovarensis is smaller, like, maybe 4-6" tall. Amabilis has a long, straight to arching stem with single flowers at the end and tovarensis has white, translucent flowers held several at a time around the tip of a stem slightly above the leaves. The hybrid, from what I hear, has a longer, single-flowered inflorescence with pink flowers that get some transluceny from the tovarensis parent. M. amabilis itself is a bright fuschia flower, not orange. It is similar to M. barleana.
