Hi Walta,
Got an SA seedling here that will be intro'd in the future. A yellow
reverse with no rim on white falls and short spanish orange horns.
(Moonraker X In Reverse). Have a reverse orange seedling, no rim on falls,
slight, slight orange/pink flush at midribs on the falls. White beards.
Both are ruffled and well branched, the yellow one has rebloomed.
Mike - with no red reverse in sight, just plans....................
