HYB:Traits:parents


Wouldn't it be nice if we could just look at an iris and know which of it's traits it will pass along, without having to make crosses to find out?? Even after crosses you still don't have the full picture, since it might?pass (genes) differently with different partners! 

I'm really appreciating Barry Blyth's advice (from somewhere) to use a good new seedling with EVERYTHING!

You never know what traits are hidden in the gene pile!? 

Anyone have any surprises you'd like to share, from the seedling patch??

Just to make sure you stay confused, what you are describing <are> "ringed" variegatas/umbratas; the blue ones just have the yellow blocked so it appears white.?

<Would the same rule not apply to ringed variegatas?>?
