Yaquina Blue is from Schreiner's seedling L-100A, and so is HONKY TONK BLUES.  The two, however, behave quite differently crossed to the same SA pollen.  YB gave flounces, HTB gave only horned to spooned and a far lower percentage of the seedlings were SA.  Two of those seedlings crossed with each other produced BOTTOMS UP for Mike, a flounced variety.  Interpreting that set of related crosses requires some head-scratching.

HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS
(M. Byers, R. 1988). Sdlg. D164-105. TB, 36" (91 cm), M & RE.
S. medium purple; F. slightly deeper purple; violet beard tipped yellow in throat; ruffled. Violet Miracle X B-8-4: (Cease-Fire x Sky Hooks). Moonshine Gardens 1989.

HRH expresses a pronounced beard spine extension that erupts into a tiny horn on occation. The eruption occures after the termination of the beard hairs and rises about 1/16 of an inch above the plane of the falls.
