observations on my several cvs of CK. I have one that was collected (by

about 1900.
Wasn't there also something about a pattern under the beard?

Yes. CK has a narrow beard base. Whether it has a rudimentary ridge
underneath the beard or just a lighter-colored stripe may be a matter of
culture or flower age -- I'm not sure of all of the factors involved so I
didn't mention it.
Pollen color, however, seems to be a distinguishing characteristic between
the cultivars we've compared -- and relatively easy to observe, so that's all
I asked for.
Of course, I welcome additional information!
