With pink in the background on both sides, I think you can get a recessive
pink, but I wouldn't venture a guess on how dark it would be.
Linda, I thought you had grown OVATION, PINK PUSSYCAT,
and STANDING OVATION already. PP was a little taller than its
sister O, but none of the trio exists in my garden today. They have
been gathered for the Master's bouquet.
