Another pollination ...

About a week ago I cross-pollinated amboinensis and violacea alba. I didn't think it will work because both flowers were several weeks old and I just wanted to practise.
Violacea flower dropped right next day, but amboinensis bloom is still holding and I can see the signs of starting pod:



It is quite exciting, but I am worried that since the blooms were old - pod might grow empty and it will be just unnecessary stress on the plant.
Anyway, here is what the cross would be if everything works out:
