The only difference between a natural hybrid and a 'synthetic or man-made' hybrid is how the pollen was applied.

If the seed was produced from a wild mother plant the seedling would need to be grown and exhibit significant differences from the mother to determine if it's a new variety or a subspecies.

If the mother plant was a cultivar then the seedling is automatically a new variety without needing it to be grown for proof.
