More about the book
The book explores the complexities of hybridization in ornamental plants, revealing that hybrids often do not display traits that are true intermediates between their parent species. While some characteristics, such as leaf shape and size, show a blend of traits, others may strongly favor one parent, making it challenging to identify the influence of the second. This study highlights the unpredictable nature of hybrid traits and the dominance of specific characteristics in plant breeding.
