Saarland seal. Plain ring: nothing here sets a rib count, a spine length or a growth form the ring can mark.
Hybrid

Partially documented
Saarland is unusual in this library for being fully documented as a . A specialist reference records it as a European hybrid of with obrepanda calorubra, and names Rolf Autenrieth as the breeder. Most named here have neither a recorded cross nor anybody's name attached to making them. No listing in the sale corpus this library holds uses the name, so we have no record of it circulating there.Reported, but not confirmed.

Every ring is that plant’s own seal, in its family’s colour — open one to keep going.
Each plant wears its own seal here, coloured by its family — so a cross shows which side brought what before you read a name. A dashed ring is a plant with no page here yet, and a wire is only ever drawn from a parent somebody wrote down. Children are worked out from the other entries rather than stored on this one, so recording a cross anywhere lights it up on both plants.
The line matters as much as the box. A dashed line is a cross we can report but cannot confirm. Every cross drawn here is at that weakest reading, which is the true state of this plant's record.
Drawn 3 generations each way. Everything our sources record for this plant is in the drawing; the family stops there, not the tree.

What the sources say
One source names the breeder, and a claim about a named person needs a second voice before this site states it as fact, so the page says who the reference names rather than who bred it.Reported, but not confirmed.
