Linda, I've not had any seedlings bloom from LW.  However, I did plant  out 
56/77 seedlings this spring from LW x ROMANTIC EVENING.  I was not  encouraged 
as most of the plants were weak looking.  Several have died, but  a couple are 
looking really strong.  (It's rare for me to lose seedlings in  the first 
summer.)  However, I do expect white/blue/lavender  seedlings.  Probably a lot of 
neglectas.  
 
Also have 9 seed from it this year.  Put 1810-10, a white  seedling with 
mixed background, on it.  LW did not set seed easily  this year.
