Statly Art has a red beard. Out of 25 or so seedlings all but one
had red tipped beards in the throat, some up to 3/4 of the beard.
99TA-05 has just a little in the throat. Most part is white tipped
yellow. A similar sibling seedling with more red in the beard was
crossed with Twilight Blaze. I have seeds from the cross.
I don't expect any from the Seapower cross. I am not up on genetics.
And I have only been making crosses since 98.
