Fig. 12. Three typical leaves representing both parent and hybrid. Upper 
leaf is from Herbemont (female parent), lower left is from Rotundifolia 
(male parent), lower right is from the hybrid. The size of the leaf on this 
hybrid is determined by the Rotundifolia parent but the lobing is much more 
pronounced than in the mature stage of the Herbemont parent, however, the 
juvenile leaves of Herbemont are deeply lobed. Reduced.
