Hi All . . .
And Hello Sylvia - GREAT TO SEE YOU POSTING!
I still have some information to send to you and will be doing that this week. At last, I have some time to read my email. Very long story!

Sylvia . . .
I'm not positive this is 'Gray Fog'.

If I sent you seeds of 'Gray Haze' -
This is pretty much what 'Gray Haze' looks like at the end of the day as it turns to a Pinkish color.
This Bloom is Gorgeous

but still doesn't have the traits of 'Gray Fog', and I am still thinking you have a stray seed

This is obviously a stray seed that I mixed in by mistake.
This is my SOLID Chocolate that I have grown for years and it does continue to remain 'True'.
Great photo

'Possibly' Gray Fog

However, I have never had one of my blooms with this kind of Margined Picotee Edge,
so I am again guessing this is a stray seed that I sent to you.
Pretty Bloom


Becky . . .
you are very correct. I do know not that SOLID Chocolate and Gray Fog were mixed up at one point. These two were growing side by side *sigh*
This IS SOLID Chocolate

Your bloom too looks to be 'Gray Fog'

Becky. . .
Your bloom here IS 'Gray Fog'

Now, let me see if I can clear up some of the mystery of 'Gray Fog'.

This is not one of my creations. The seeds came from Japan without a name. I got my seeds from Lyuda who also lives in Texas and can't at the moment remember where.

Last year is the first year I grew this MG.
This year I have noticed they remained True to a high percentage. However, I have gotten some other variations as well, but you can still see the charastic of the original 'Gray Fog'.

Here is an example of that with this Bloom
