Big picture update: I have photo'd most of my mature or semi-mature crosses for a run-down here. Those not shown will be noted.
D, tokaiensis x sp. Lantau Island. I made this cross 3 times, with tokaiensis from different origins (though since they're all similar enough I might just sell off a bunch and make it just one pot)

Meanwhile, the reverse sp. Lantau x tokaiensis only succeeded once

D. spatulata "Royal Natl. Pk. Sydney" x anglica Oregon. With my first anglica Alakai Swamp, HI plant flowering, I might make a full tropical remake. The HI plant also has longer leaves...

One of two batches of tokaiensis x spatulata 'Tamlin'

natalensis x tokaiensis. They're not too hot since flowering runs them down like the tokai parent. The reverse appears to have failed, so I will likely remake that one.
D. natalensis x tokaiensis by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
D. tokaiensis x spatulata "white flower." Extremely vigorous. I did not photo the reverse, which is slightly larger.

My one and only sp. Lantau Island x capensis 'Albino'

And, sp. Lantau x capensis "typical"

spatulata 'Tamlin' x "white flower"
D. spatulata 'Tamlin' x "white flower" by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
spatulata 'Tamlin' x sp. Lantau Island. Probably the best looking of the various "rosette" crosses
D. spatulata 'Tamlin' x sp. Lantau Island' by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
sp. Lantau Island x brevifolia. The first ones are flowering, and the stalks have the glandular traits, and flowers the split stigmas of brevifolia, but otherwise they're nearly identical to Lantau
D. sp. Lantau Island x brevifolia by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
Comparison of the first flower and Lantau. Sorry for blurriness, but the split stigmas and rounded petals are visible, neither present in regular Lantau.

I made two crosses of tokaiensis x intermedia Easton (originally believing the second tokai was capillaris "Long Arm"). This one is currently the best looking.

affinis x spatulata "white flower." I must note, oddly after reaching a certain height and width, my two largest simply stopped producing leaves. I'm hoping new growth points appear soon, but I have no explanation for this...

madagascariensis x affinis. Though it takes after the pollen parent a lot, in good light the shorter, wider lamina and hairier petioles are quite clear
D. madagascariensis x affinis by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
D. spatulata "Fraser Island" x tokaiensis. Due to the oddly differing shape of the Fraser form, this cross is quite clearly different from the other spat x tokai crosses

My sp. Lantau Island x spatulata 'Tamlin' are suffering a little, but I think the problem has been found

I take back what I said earlier, my new cross aliciae x sp. Lantau Island is the best looking rosette cross
D. aliciae x sp. Lantau Island by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
D. aliciae x sp. Lantau Island by hawken.carlton, on Flickr
I realize now I also forgot to photo the natalensis x aliciae, but that one is already on this thread. The reverse remake (after I discovered the original attempt fell through) is beginning to mature however, along with the supposed tokaiensis x aliciae and reverse.
The first crosses with (ultramafica x spatulata) have also been sown, and I am beginning to harvest the new filiformis FL All Red crosses. The x intermedia Mt. Roraima fell through, though I saved pollen and have now attempted the reverse, so fingers crossed. filiformis x capensis also seems to have failed, though the reverse still seems to have a chance. Also, as I said above the first tropical anglica is flowering, so new crosses with that may be imminent.
