So Lorn, it sounds like Melanie is from Griesbach genetics - either bred directly by Griesbach but not selected by Peter at the time of the original 5 or maybe hybridised by Peter Groot from Griesbach stock before he sold to The Lily Company... or by The Lily Company after they acquired the breeding stock from Peter? Though I guess either nursery could have had their own tetraploid stock in parallel with the Griesbach stock, not necessairly interbred. Thanks for digging all that up.

I notice Hublien has had his arm torn off - did the lilies fight back? Hilarious!
