[SpaceAgeRobin] SOLAR FIRE

It didn't take long for SOLAR FIRE to start dropping the flounces.  What the 
blooms are showing now is a yellow spot below the beard where the flounce 
should.  Looks like a scar where it was removed.  The first three blooms had 
flounces.  The two following had one flounce each and the scar.  Now they 
are all just showing the scar.  My Tbird seedling has the last bloom open 
today.  Four buds will dry up.  But none of those that opened missed having 
that appendage.  That's a first for any SA here.  So far EAGLE CONTROL is 
holding on to the horns.  Maybe it will keep them through all the bloom.  I 
tried to get pods on SF via the seedling and the reciprocal cross and used 
the seedling on EC, but conditions aren't good here for getting takes.  And 
the pollen didn't look great either.  I'll know in a week or so if there's a 
chance.
