ABOUT THIS CROSS

This pairing blends dark authority with high-gloss precision.

Carlablackiae RA7

RA7 is one of the most consistent and high-impact Carlablackiae selections in

circulation. It’s known for deep, saturated velvet, heavy bullation, and a

strong, wide-shouldered frame. Mature leaves hold shadow and presence, giving

RA7 that unmistakable velvet weight collectors chase.

Besseae aff. “VSOP”

VSOP is an ultra-vibrant Besseae-type selection named for its cognac-toned

emergents. It brings glossy texture, crisp venation, and elongated, elegant

outlines. As leaves mature, that early brightness settles into refined contrast

and definition. VSOP adds clarity, sheen, and sculpted form.

Together, this hybrid balances texture and definition. Dark velvet that doesn’t

go flat. Shine that doesn’t overpower.

TRAIT POTENTIAL

• Dense, saturated velvet with visible bullation

• Glossy surface detail layered over dark tones

• Strong midrib and clean venation

• Wide shoulders with controlled sinus expression

• Bright emergents that harden down dark

• Individual expression will vary

⸻

WHY THIS CROSS STANDS OUT

• Rare contrast of dark velvet + glossy structure in one plant

• Texture and clarity both hold as the plant matures

• High ceiling for wide-shouldered, architectural phenotypes

• Reads luxurious up close and commanding from across the room

• Built for collectors who want presence, not novelty

This is a statement hybrid — the kind that commands attention even on a crowded

shelf.
