I assume that Strawberries and Cream cross was open pollinated to get the range of flower shapes? There certainly are advantages to OP, or crossing with parents containing lots of different genes. I like the one on the left in the fifth pic, especially. Maybe it is just the Christmas season, but it reminded me of the spritz I make. I had some with color on both the inside and at the tips, but they didn't seem as appealing, so I discarded (I mean, ate) them. Big Grin

The buds on those Lankon sure have a lot more color than mine ever do. Were all those stems originally planted as one single bulb (that divided over the year(s)? If so, when did you plant it?
