I ran across this today and wondered just what it meant, I did not see a listing for dip
'Canary Bird Song'. Anything as a dip conversion?
Heavenly Blue Diva (Gossard, 2021):
(((Super Fancy Face x Texas Kaleidoscope) × (Dip. Canary Bird Song) x Blue Oasis))

Interesting.

This is part of the description of 'Spacecoast Blue Butterfly' on Jamie's site:
"Comes from a 2021 Heavenly Gardens intro, which pedigree is from a rare, converted diploid. Pedigree of Heavenly Blue Deva is (Extra Fancy Face = (Super Fancy Face x Texas Kaleidoscope)) x (diploid Canary bird song) x Blue Oasis. Also note Canary Bird Song is a tetraploid. The diploid version cannot be introduced per AHS. Spacecoast Blue Butterfly is an extremely good rebloomer, in Ohio, Wisconsin and Florida..."

The story gets even more interesting. Here is an interesting story by Sandy/Mike Holmes on her site Riverbend Gardens website about Canary Bird Song.
