Seedling 14-AB-18-20


Thumb of 2016-04-07/Misawa77/85d7b7

Cover your eyes!!! Arilbred OGB (half-bred) seedling blooming now. 14-AB-18-20, very bright and clean with an intense yellow signal. Most other "light colored" signals that we've tried here have faded strongly within hours of the flower opening, this one still looks strong. Parentage is (a sib to New Vision x (Bagdad's Folly x Energizer)) X Shaman's Magic. Shocked and happy when we discovered this one.

UPDATE--just checked in the field and the flower is folding on the 3rd or 4th day now and the yellow spot is even a little darker, so it appears to not fade.
