Fred - Love the colors of the first one and I am smitten with the bloom size of the second seedling! Lovey dubby

Here are my seedling blooms for the first day of May:

CCC15: Drink the Light x God Save the Queen - always reliably blooms each Spring! Sowed from seed in 2013 and bloomed for the first time in 2014.

UUU03: CCC01 (Laughing Clown x Zanti Misfit) x ZZZ19 (Magic of Oz x Lily Munster)
This one is a surprise considering all the parents involved. I am not a huge fan of yellow daylilies, but this one I really like. It has an air of elegance and the color is quite pleasing to me.

UUU13: Little Jet Setter x Japanese Brocade - Interesting resulting blooms. The blooms are 3-1/2" with 13 buds to start with. (First time to bloom.) Looks like little Jet Setter only in the "pink" version.

Now something has struck me about this one. It has produced several blooms. All have streaking of yellow on the petals or sepals somewhere. At first I just thought it was the first bloom, but I am now noticing this happening on every bloom from this particular scape.

TTT27: CCC05 (Laughing Clown x Zanti Misfit) x Little Jet Setter. These are the photos of the blooms from this particular scape. Look closely at the petals/sepals and you will see the yellow streaking.
1st bloom - Thumb of 2019-05-01/beckygardener/8fdb80
2nd bloom - Thumb of 2019-05-01/beckygardener/3ceed9
3rd bloom - Thumb of 2019-05-01/beckygardener/fbec7f

So my question is - Is this yellow splotching/streaking an external issue or it is an internal mutation of this particular fan/scape/buds?
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters, compared to what lies within us.
