You may have stumbled across such in the cross of (Pink Lenox X Celebration Song)--or it may be the conditions weren't right for SA traits to show up--as in the example of Devonshire Cream.

WILD WINGS probably has it too.  Mike Sutton reported a short list from his memory of others, including QUITO, DYNAMITE  and others that give few if any SA offspring.

Would you be willing to share that seedling, or any of the non-SA progeny from the cross with Mesmerizer?  They could yield important information for us.
