Hi Leroy, recent siberians with no White Swirl or Caesar's Brother in their
parentage are hard to find (especially if you don't count ones with
'parentage unknown'). Snow Prince is one (Sibirica Grandis X self). Rose
Quest (Hager, early 80s) is another (very complicated parentage).
Snow Prince has worked very well with White Swirl descendants. Small flowers
are the only 'disadvantage' that I've come across if you're breeding for
large flowers. On the plus side it has seemingly opened a whole new range of
colors with the added benefit of hybrid vigor.
There must be others but you'd have to search the check list for them.
