'Only Fooling'  has a darker spot, even if it doesn't show much, and it came out in it's baby C314A!i
you could use it with your (Megglethorp X Double Scoop), but it is only pod fertile.
 
Do you know Megglethorp has a white sibbling : 'Ameila Bedeila'!
 
What about 'Apricot Drops',it is pod & pol fertile,  It's pol parent is 'Pele', it's spot might come out!
you also have 'Zing Me', pod fertile only.
 
i would also try 'Chubby Cheeks', not for the spot, but fabulous things always come out with 'Chubby Cheeks'!
And you spot + plicata might give 'ringed plicatas'.

Hi Loic,
I can see why you thought of 'Miss Nellie'.
They look amazingly similar.

I'm hoping to use something that will cancel out the purple background of the falls so that the spot becomes more noticeable. I'd like to get the brownish-red spot from this seedling but on a white, yellow, pink or pale-orange background. Any suggestions for a tetraploid BB, TB or MTB (to use for pollen) that would accomplish this kind of erasing of the purple.

By the way, I caught a glimpse of your seedling "C314A" while I was at your link. I can see why you were over the moon - that's a really nice look.
Take care, Tom
