New seedling with a split personality...
I might call her 'Sybil'... These are her first flowers and they are already showing signs of wanting to sport... normal colour is the pink.

It's going to be a miniature groundcover. Seed parent is 'Temple Bells'. Pollen parent is ? (slugs ate the label two years ago).

That's nice Simon, and I quite like that patch of white.
I like the colour and shape.

Re: New seedling with a split personality...
The colour should stabilise and stay the same but as it matures the flower shape and form will most likely change quite a bit.
Re: New seedling with a split personality...
I quite like the patch of white too. Love seeing your creations Simon!

Re: New seedling with a split personality...
I wish I knew what the pollen parent was! I've kept a few of the crosses from that season and the slugs ate all the labels. They've all been similar type flowers so far but on different type plants. The main thing they have in common is great health.
There is the one above which so far has stayed quite small and is quite compact. This one, which is showing more of a rambling habit:

and this one which also shows a rambling habit but doesn't have the health of the others:

I will be throwing the last one out as it does not meet my selection standards but so far the first two seem pretty good. There are others in the test bed too but they still have not flowered.
Rosalie, these are from 'Temple Bells' so I hope those cuttings I sent you take and you can use it as well... it's a great parent.
