The bright yellow of Billionaire is there with the blue of delpninidin.
The two combined gives you purple.

To check this out for yourself, put a petal of this seedling into
boiling hot water. the anthocyanin delphinidin is water soluble. The
yellow isn't. so after the anthocyanin has dissolved, you will see the
yellow. May need a couple of hot water treatments to get all the
anthocyanin disolved.

Â
Just opened, parentage is Billionaire x Now see This. strange how the
bright yellow color of Billionaire has become totally recessive
