I still work with hybrids close to L. tsingtauense. I've always hoped to get the ruffled foliage with an L. martagon style flower. No more open pollinated seed lots with these, though. I only get variations of the ubiquitous orange flowers and bad inflorescence structure, like the pics below. So from now on, only deliberate pollinations with these.

27 - The first time I've had any hint of ruffly foliage with a martagon style flower. It showed no inkling of this in previous years, though. We'll have to see what the future holds....

More new flowers this year than all my previous years combined. As Darm likes to say, I'm happy.
