Favorite seedling as of today

Post by combellack »

Or to be more precise Favorite streaky sport from semi stabilized seedling. Probably from Color Fantasy but due to record loss from a couple years back i can not be sure. Nice substance and quite shiny leaves but on the downside has yet to set a seed

Wow - that is a pretty one!

I do hope it gets on track and decides to bloom for you so you will know if it is fertile. In the meantime, it looks great!

Nice! It's not even stabilized, but it already has a bright splash of white. Very nice. :)

Very nice! Did the older leaves start out with more green like the new ones appear to be? How old is this seedling? Very :cool:

This a stable division from the plant that the streak came from and while it is nice enough it is nothing to exiting
