Default The Secret Origins of N Miranda!!!

Hi everyone

I've been well searching high and low for the true origins and what N miranda may actually be.Nowadays most people say or claim that N miranda is N mixta x maxima which is N (maximax northiana) x N maxima.I've always thought it was that which is probally not after looking at some intresting threads.Some people has actually crossed a N mixta with a maxima themselves...But as many know N maxima has a lot of variations.So this is the thread

In this thread at the bottom a guy suggested that a N miranda could have some veitchii parentage in it.As you can see the N mixta x maxima there looks NOTHING like a N miranda.Which looks like this.

So N miranda has a slightly more flared peristrome than a N mixta so does that show even a little hope that N miranda might have a little veitchii parantage in it??So will we ever know the TRUE ORIGINS OF N miranda????
