This is a hybrid between Achimenes and Smithiantha, both members of the family Gesneriaceae. It would fit with Achimenes, Eucodonia, Smithiantha in the data base, but isn't quite one of them. How are inter-species hybrid usually handled in the database?

Thanks.

In cases like that we add them exactly as "xAchimenantha" without a space. I'll add this plant.
