Title: RE: [nise] Snowflurry
My planting of H. 'Snowflakes' seedlings showed about 10% of the "snowflurry" variegation. I planted all the seeds from one pod (OP) of one of these "snowflurry" variegated seedlings and all 27 of those seedlings were "snowflurry" variegated.

Snowflurry means two things at the same time It is the name of a K
Vaughn cultivar and the name of a mutation
Contrary to what is said Snowflurry mutation is a recessive NUCLEAR
mutation. Contraryy to what is said it is probably not the pattern seen in
Revolution As the name suggest snowflurry is white blotching on a
green background not the other way round If you want to see some you
should self Snowflakes . 25 % of its offspring are of the snowflurry type.
Most of these are not long lived Only two survived the winter for me
One of them is streaked Too!
