For what it's worth, I thought I'd report an occurrence from my  garden.  
This is my Hot Streak X Earl of Essex cross.  There are  several seedlings from 
this cross that I really like.  Most have apricot to  purplish standards with 
dark purple marking on either cream or yellow  falls.  
 
1509-4 was the only one I saved that didn't rebloom.  I saved it  because it 
had the butterfly veining.  I figured I'd enjoy it for a few  years even if I 
didn't use or introduce it.  
 
This year it bloomed plicata like all the other siblings!  Everything  else 
in that bed was as marked, so I seriously doubt I messed up the  marker.  I'm 
careful . . .  but not perfect.
 
Any chance that the veining was one of those first year anomalies?   This is 
my guess.  I am disappointed.  Anyone have this type of  experience?
