LarryW - Thank you for taking the time to give your opinion on my seedling. What I noticed about the blooms .... it opened better the warmer it was. And many of the photos were taken very early in the morning (before I had to leave for work), so it had not had the time to open fully when I took the photos. I kept thinking it looked a lot like AK and then when I did the pedigree chart, it REALLY looks like AK. So I think this seedling is most likely "Stippled Statement x Alexa Kathryn". Stippled Statement would be the pod parent because that is what was on one of the empty baggies. The pollen parent was unknown on the baggie. It might have been bee pollinated or it may have lost it's tag before the seeds were collected by Sandi.

I love this plant. It bloomed constantly for about 2 months. I also collected a lot of seeds from it and used it's pollen, too. So it is quite fertile both ways. I can't wait to grow out some of the seeds from this seedling to see what I get. I was crossing it with everything that was blooming during those 2 months because it produced at least 1 bloom a day to use. Thumbs up

Mayo - I love the Scrapbook Factory Deluxe version 5 program. I use it for everything and was thrilled to find a family tree/pedigree chart to use for my hybridizing (which was included in the program). The only down side is that it is NOT sold as a downloadable program. They mail you the boxed program, so it takes time to receive it. But it is a LOT of fun to use!!!
