admmad said:Dave Mussar has produced a seedling from 'Pitter Patter' that shows the spots. The other parent was 'Pink Stripes'. You can see it at http://dave.mussar.com/NewSeed...

I would guess that 'Pitter Patter' crossed with near whites might produce seedlings with spots and possibly when crossed with some light pinks and some light yellows. I would guess that the spots would not be visible if the other parent was a deeper red or purple, especially if the other parent was from a line of darker reds or purples.


Dave does not have any for sale, however. I know because I tried to buy it from him. Whistling

Crossing with near whites was more of my end goal. I like the look of the plant which is what made me interested in buying it, but if I were going to work it into my own stuff, I would am exactly along that line.
