Barry Blyth doesn't actually call AR a glaciata, and I was wondering if it 
could just be a plicata, with the anthocyanin genes inhibited. The glaciata 
gene is a seperate one from the plicata gene.
ANGEL'S CALL is a sibling of Harmonics, and has very feint blue plicata 
markings. Barry calls the other sibling, SOME ARE ANGELS, a glaciata, but he 
does not use this term for AR.

AR is from Billows X a Harmonics sibling
ONLY YOU (BILLOWS X HARMONICS) has lemon standards, and rose plicata 
markings on the falls only, (like Billows)

It will be interesting to see what I get from these seedlings. I am hoping 
that one has pink standards, and cream falls. Of course chances are I will 
get one and it will have dreadful form and growth habit :-)
Cheers, jan
