Hi
I'm not what really causes this irregular patterening but Ensminger isn't
the only one working on these color brakes. Brad Kasparek has some real
dandies as well. If the plant is healthy and there are pleasant blossums why
not taking a fair look before passing judgement. The tulips have a virus which
causes the color breaks. I have not heard that about iris. It has something to
do with pigment layers I think. I', not overly fond of all the "new" breaks
but even I can learn.

Western Washington where we went canoeing on the Puget Sound and saw hundreds
of orange, blue, gray, and yellow starfish. It was delightful!
