ShawnSteve On June 26, 2022 Harvested
Seeds, crossed with the darkest blue.
Transplanted a couple of seedlings, from Park Seeds, for more sun...
ShawnSteve On June 1, 2022 Bloomed
Turned a much darker shade of blue, this year.
While I need to move a few others, to more sunlight, from Park Seed.
ShawnSteve On January 6, 2022 Seeds germinated
Ex. Park Seeds, as these seem to be reliably, truly "Fama Deep Blue", & range to nearly some color, in a shade of purple.

I'm wondering, if seeds aren't imported from Germany, (or from original source,) just may not be "true to name," if any seeds are actually produced,& collected from the resulting plants, especially if it just so happens to be an F1 hybrid.

My observation has often been, plants don't easily produce seeds.
While some offered under the cv. name, aren't nearly as deep blue, (to nearly purple,) as those sourced from Germany.
