Hi Patrick,
I am looking at a STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN X CLARENCE cross blooming  right now.
Very nice, light yellow standards with red violet falls that have a blue and
white wash with a white edge and blue beards.  The effect is something
between SEAKIST and BOOGIE WOOGIE.  First year seedling with what looks like
at least 11 increases.
Mike
