No doubt that when hybridizing there are few certainties-- and that one should expect the unexpected Hilarious!

But still I’m curious… are you aware of any results that might be expected to happen a bit more frequently when you cross different edges? Any generalities regarding relative dominance between the different kinds of edges—teeth, piecrust, extreme ruffles, etc.? Or is just 100% roll of the dice...

I’ve read that crossing teeth with teeth almost always produces children with teeth, and that teeth are generally dominant.

If you cross teeth (like Bass Gibson) with heavy ruffles (like Alpine Ruffles) is there any result you’d expect? More kids with teeth than not? Teethy ruffles? Thoughts anyone?

Anyone have insights into what might be expected more frequently if crossing two different edges of any kind?
