Re: HYB: pigments - Crazy & vac inclusions

Thanks Colleen.  It hadn't quite sunk in that 'rose' color is an
anthocyanin type pigment.

Is rose usually/always anthocyanin?  Or can oil soluble pigments
approach that color also?

When I've done pedigree searches in the past, if I ran across something
that was rose colored, I assumed it had at least some oil soluble
pigment.

ALPENROSE is in the background of a lot of the recent multicolor
Schreiner pedigrees I've traced, & I'd been assuming it had some pink in
it.

Lifetime learning experience - wish I wasn't forgetting almost as fast
as I learn these days!
