John Kulpa concentrates mainly on "teeth", and that breeding is in Regina's background. (Mort Morss × Shores of Time) x Megatron. Even John had to admit that it's lack of teeth did not mean it was a discard.

An amazing plant that clumps up quickly and has a very long bloom time. Everyone that sees it growing, wants it.

Some years it has set pods fairly easily for me, but some years it's a struggle. I have not figured out what factor is effecting that, but perhaps it just takes a rest once in a while. It's pollen is always very fertile.

Regina Sitko not only bud builds, but I get quite a bit of instant rebloom. ;)

The fine white edge transmits to it's offspring. This seedling from one of Johns future registrations ("Kathy Rinke") crossed with "Regina Sitko", shows both the white edge and some teeth.
