Wow! Monika :D It is beautiful. It is almost like seeing an aurea as a double :) I have a few pods myself on B. x candida 'Enchanted Double White' x 'Goldenes Kornett' and one with x 'EP'. The 'Goldenes Kornett' cross won't probably be as beautiful as your hybrid and probably all be white, but I put my trust in backcrossing the doubles to 'Goldenes Kornett' for better color or to cross (EDW x GK) x (EDW x EP) in the hope that EP in the mix will help the color of GK to shine through. But that has long terms LOL Until then I will enjoy all the beauties, that you have made :)

BTW. Monika, 'Tutu' seem to have a habit of loosing the pods premature. Is there a trick, that will make her keep them?
