Re: Re: HYB: ? inheritance of blue beards?

Well, speaking of blue beards, here's 07I2 in maiden bloom:(05S3:(Kit Fox x 
Lumalite) X 05M1:(Kit Fox x 20A10:(Blitz x Haven))).  The blue beard is from 
two generations back: Haven.  If there's a blue beard on the other side of 
the pedigree, it's purty far back. This is a first-year seedling.  Note 
number of stalks.  --  Griff
