... and your Mommy? Guess the parents!

Since I moved to a different house this year I wasn't able to do grow outs of my "specials". I ended up growing out F1's of previous years of open pollination MG's grown together on the same frame.

As flowers open I think it would be fun to try and guess the parents of the obvious crosses (though there are bound to be purebred's).

Here is a list of the MG's I've planted - unless otherwise indicated, they are F1's:

Double Blue Picotee X Mini Bar Rose F2, F3, F4,
Platycodon Blue X Fujishibori F1
Grey Fog
Rose Silk
Rose Silk X Fujishibori F1
Mini Bar Rose,
NOID Blues & Pinks

and

Rose Silk
Hanafubuki
Sunsmile Purple
Platycodoon Blue
Grandpa Ott
Cardinal Climber Yellow

Here are the first batch - I've numbered the pictures so if you're guessing the parentage, refer to the picture number:

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
