Jeff, this description reminds me of some of the strange
seedlings, Mike Sutton has on his web page. One of Mike's
seedlings involves SUKY and my own WHITE REPRISE, which
does not have any immediate plic genes. SUKY may.

Yes, the NE and UT broken colors have plics in the background.
BROKEN DREAMS, '99, doesn't have plics in the background as
far as I can tell.
There are others, but I cannot think of them right now. CANDY
CANE does not have plics in the background, and MAKE BELIEVE
is far removed with just a diluted dose of plic genes from SAN
FRANCISCO.
